The oldest evidence and records of catastrophic falls of large space rocks are undoubtedly impact craters that are studied by geologists. However, in historical times, i.e. the times of the emergence and development of human cultures, there are also records discovered by the latest geological but also archaeological research. Among the most spectacular are the discoveries of Chinese archaeologists. They link the invention of stone tools made on both sides (including fists and hatchets) almost 800,000 years ago in the area of the Bose Valley in Guangxi in southern China with the decline of tektites in the Middle Paleolithic. With the development and invention of writing, they are also reflected in sculptures, written texts, poems, notes and chronicles. Scientists believe that rock-carved symbols found in the world’s oldest temple, Göbekli Tepe in southern Turkey, dated to over 10,000 BC, are evidence that a comet caused the Little Ice Age. Also worth mentioning is the Epic of Gilgamesh, which is probably the oldest written story on Earth. Originally from ancient Sumeria, it was written in cuneiform on 12 clay tablets. It follows the adventures of the historical king of Uruk, somewhere between 2750 and 2500 BC. According to the translated text of the recently discovered new cuneiform tablets, on the so-called In the first Tablet, there is a record of a large meteorite that fell to the ground. However, the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah described in the Bible, as recent research has shown, is also the result of a cosmic body that fell in this region of Jordan.

This article complements the previous publication included in the materials for the 2nd Meteorite Seminar in Olsztyn in 2003 and also in 2004 in Meteoritics & Planetary Science with artifacts about which I did not write then and new discoveries. In recent time, archaeologists have discovered more confirmed artifacts that were made of meteorites. Scientists were puzzled that iron objects were found among the artifacts of the Bronze Age. Initially, it was assumed that these were the beginnings of metallurgy, but after careful research, it turned out that they are cold-forged items and the metal is of cosmic origin. How many more interesting and unusual old artifacts made by human hands from materials obtained from outer space will be discovered. Can there be more such artifacts in museums in Poland? It seems to me that a comprehensive inventory and research action should be carried out to verify this. Finally, as a lawyer, I can add that artifacts made of meteorites are the only meteorites in the world protected by law in one hundred percent, because they are monuments of world material culture.

It should be emphasized that the tektites have been permanently linked in many regions of the Earth with the history of mankind. One of the oldest finds is the Vltavite amulet, which was found in a Cro-Magnon settlement, that is 29,000 years ago. Prehistoric tools made of tektites are found at various archaeological sites around the world. Wherever there are tektites, man has used them in various ways: as tools, objects of worship, magic objects or healing objects. They also appear in many legends as magic stones, e.g. in China in the 10th century AD, tektites were collected as “stones of the god of thunder”. Some shamans believe that they have the power to transmit and receive messages over long distances and that they have properties that protect against disease. Aborigines in Australia believed that they had enormous power in rites of raining down and that they were also remedies for many ailments. In fact, tektites have always been associated with magic, highly appreciated by people and they are still enjoys great interest among scientists all over the world. The above conclusions can be reached by analyzing many discoveries and scientific research in the areas of tektite occurrence.
