Off topic, in a sense, but have you read
The Peshawar Lancers, by S.M. Stirling? Kinda the same scenario (alternate history involving massive cometary impacts throwing civilization all to hell in the 1870's), and your posts reminded me of it.

Relax. It's a fake. The Florida State Tourism Association is desperate to prove that there was once intelligent life in Florida. I reckon they figure "better to have had it in the remote past, than never at all."
Which is what most people might think upon encountering Floridians, native or otherwise.

As a further aside, it is only since the late 1800s that science accepted that meteorites came from the sky. The science kook of that day thought outrageously that meteors and meteorites were related.
