Description

In 1576, the governor of a province in Northern Argentina commissioned the military to search for a huge mass of iron, which he had heard that natives used for their weapons who claimed that the mass had fallen from the sky in a place they called Piguem Nonralta which the Spanish translated as Campo del Cielo (“Field of heaven (or the sky)”).

This specimen is one of the fragments from the recent found with fine-scaled sculpture, which is lightly coated in mineral oil to prevent rusting. Please take note this is the exact unit you will receive in your order.
