In an earlier paper [Brown, 1960], the author estimated the frequency of meteorite impact upon the earth and moon on the basis of the numbers of observed falls over a period of a century in Japan, India, and Western Europe. All of these areas have had high rural population densities during the entire period. It was recognized, however, that the estimated fall density of 0.32 falls/year/106/km • was probably low.Recently, in connection with the compilation of maps showing the locations of observed meteorite falls, it has been noticed that approximately 1• of the Indian falls have been recovered in the relatively small area of 330,000 km • embracing most of the United Provinces, the eastern parts of the Punjab and Rajputana, and the western part of Bihar Province. This region is characterized by the large river network that includes the Ganges, the Jumna, the Gogra, the Chauka, the Son, and the Gandak. The region is extremely fertile and level, with the result that it has one of the highest rural population densities in the world--more than 500 persons per square mile.During Using the term 'fall' to denote a meteorite that passes through the atmosphere and, after landing, is large enough to be found and picked up, the total rate of fall upon the earth appears to be about 560 meteorites per year. In view of the higher value of the estimated fall density upon the earth, all of the computed impact frequencies of meteorites upon the earth and
