During the night between 27 and 28 December 1998, a brilliant fireball and loud noises were reported by several people in Beja region.
Antonio Silva recovered the first fragments two days after the fall and, subsequently, local villagers recovered other pieces. The meteorite made an elliptical crater 20 centimetres deep, 60 centimetres long and 30 centimetres wide. Most of all fragments were found within an elliptical area long 55 metres .
