Zerhamra is also the name of a 640-kilogram (1,410 lb) meteorite discovered in 1967, 22 kilometres (14 mi) away from the village. A Siderite (Group III AB), the heavy meteorite is a portion of the metallic core of a celestial body which fragmented during a powerful collision. The characteristic shape of the surface is indicative of erosion.
