Dakhla Glass (DG)
The origin of the Dakhla Glass (DG) had puzzled scientists since MAXINE KLEINDIENST discovered it in 1987 nearby the Dakhla Oasis (Egypt). Some researchers had suggested the "Stone Age" glass may have been produced by burning vegetation or lightning strikes. But a chemical analysis showed that the glass was created in temperatures so high that they could only have been the result of an impact event.
