Mbozi Meteorite |
Mbozi Meteorite is about 65km southwest of Mbeya , one of the largest meteorites in the world. Weighing an estimated 25 metric tonnes, it's around 3m long and 1m tall. Scientists are unsure when it hit the earth, but it is assumed to have been many thousands of years ago, since there are no traces of the crater that it must have made when it fell, nor any local legends regarding its origins.Although the site was only discovered by outsiders in 1930, it had been known to locals for centuries, but not reported because of various associated taboos. Like most meteorites, the one at Mbozi is composed primarily of iron (90%), with about 8% nickel and traces of phosphorous and other elements. It was declared a protected monument by the government in 1967 and is now under the jurisdiction of the Department of Antiquities. The meteorite’s dark colour is due to its high iron content, while its burnished look comes from the melting and other heating that occurred as the meteorite hurtled through the atmosphere towards earth.

After the Versailles Treaty which marked the end of the German rule in Tanganyika/Tanzania, the BOMA was renamed ‘English BOMA’ and the British colonial government used it as an administrative building. After independence in 1961, the BOMA served as an office for the District Commissioner and continued to serve the same purpose until 1997 when its use stopped due to continued collapsing. Fortunately, between 2010 and 2014, the entire BOMA was renovated. |
