(meteorobs) mythology

[Hunter, Robert]

Have you tried a google search? I tried "meteors mythology" and got over 85,000 hits.  About 10% of them appear to be useful; Pawnee Indian myths, Romanian myths,etc.  Are there any Croatian myths involving meteors?

No, it's not what I am searching for... I need some "serious"
meteor-related mythological stories... :-) But... Thank You. It's nice to know about a meteor book for little children!
