The orb — which reportedly weighed about 4.5 pounds and was cold to the touch when found — had etched into it a series of ancient-looking symbols, including runes and characters from the Ogham and Mesopotamian writing systems.

Locals claim that the object is of alien origin, and even researchers admit they can’t say where it came from.

One of the men who found the sphere, named only as Jose, felt sick for days after touching the orb, el Potro said.

“When I poured water on it, it started to smoke, and the water vaporized instantly,” he added.

Any reason to suspect it’s anything other than a neat looking projectile?

‘Art Bell’ I haven’t heard his name in 20 years.
Listened to Art on Long drives during my road warrior days on the nuke industry.

I dunno. I grew up reading superhero comics, and I think there's a 50-50 chance that the guy who found the orb and got sickened from it may well become Colmbia's first superhero.
