Not as luxurious as expected, according to Trip Advisor. (Indians may feel similarly about the other Raj.)

Street hawking is an opportunity, not an eyesore | ACCA Global

I for one, would love to see all the panoply of Falconry on display on intersections during my daily commute. Alas, it is the other type. What with all those 'no hawking' signs, it is no wonder.

Meteorite

 

[Quid est Veritas?]

The Artemis of Ephesus was said to have 50 breasts, but it has been theorised that it originally had been a meteorite as cult object. The breasts perhaps arising from the bumps of the meteorite. There is a tradition of worshipping stones in Anatolia, such as the stone of Emesa or of Cybele transported to Rome. Some think the stone of Adam of the Kaabah being similar, especially as the name might be related to Cybele.

This also underlies the Starmetal of Conan the Barbarian.
