“Meteorite worship was relatively common in ancient Phoenicia.”

The ancient Greeks and Romans also engaged in meteorite worship. The most famous example was the Roman emperor Elagabalus who created the “Deus Sol Invictus” cult that centered around a conical shaped meteorite. The meteorite was displayed in a temple (called the “Elagabalium”) near the Colosseum in Rome. One can see images of this cult object on the back of Roman coins struck during Elagabalus’ reign. This same meteorite might have been a stone that was earlier worshiped by the Phoenicians.

History does not record what happened to Elagabalus’ meteorite. Who knows? It’s not likely (nickel-iron meteroites tend to rust) but maybe the Kaba stone is the same rock?
