==Physical characteristics and formation==
[[File:Willamette-meteorite-7637.jpg|thumb|left|upright|Close-up of the meteorite]]
The Willamette Meteorite weighs about {{convert|34200|lb|kg|-2}}. It is classified as a [[meteorite classification|type III iron meteorite]], being composed of over 91% [[iron]] and 7.62% [[nickel]], with traces of [[cobalt]] and [[phosphorus]]. The approximate dimensions of the meteorite are {{convert|10|feet|m|0}} tall by {{convert|6.5|feet|m|0}} wide by {{convert|4.25|feet|m|1}} deep. Most iron meteorites like Willamette have originated from the differentiated core of [[planetesimal]]s or [[asteroid]]s that collided with another object. Willamette has a recrystallized structure with only traces of a medium [[Widmanstätten pattern]]; the result of a significant impact-heating event on the parent body.<ref name=AMNH /><ref>^ Vagn F. Buchwald: Handbook of Iron Meteorites, University of California Press 1975.</ref> The Willamette Meteorite contains higher concentrations of various metals that are quite rare in Earth's crust. For example, [[iridium]], one of the least abundant elements in Earth's crust, is found in the Willamette Meteorite at a concentration of 4.7&nbsp;[[Parts-per notation|ppm]]<!-- vs. having an average mass fraction of 0.001&nbsp;ppm in crustal rock -->, thousands of times more concentrated than in the crust.<!-- this image (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/09/Elemental_abundances.svg) is used in a number of articles to show relative abundance of elements in Earth's crust; probably not appropriate for this article on the WM, but useful to show rarity of various elements. --><ref>{{cite journal|title=The chemical classification of iron meteorites—VII.

==Emplacement and erosion==
[[Image:Wpdms nasa topo missoula floods.jpg|thumbnail|right|[[Glacial Lake Columbia]] (west) and [[Lake Missoula|Glacial Lake Missoula]] (east, in blue) were south of Cordilleran Ice Sheet. The areas inundated in the Columbia and [[Missoula Floods]] are shown in red. The meteorite was rafted by the floods embedded inside an ice block.]]
The lack of an [[impact crater]] at the discovery site was only explained after the 1920s, with the new understanding about the [[Missoula Floods]], one of the largest floods documented. These floods were caused by the collapse of an ice barrier during the last deglaciation. 

The meteorite presumably landed on an ice cap in what is now [[Montana]] or western [[Canada]], and was dragged by the glacier ice to the vicinity of an ice barrier that formed across the [[Clark Fork River]]. This barrier had ponded a huge amount of water at [[Lake Missoula]] right at the time when the meteorite reached the area and the ice barrier became unstable and breached. The resulting flood involved up to {{convert|10|e6m3|e6ft3|abbr=off}} per second of water discharge, with large blocks of ice rafting down the [[Columbia River]] and the [[Willamette Valley]] at the end of the last Ice Age (~13,000 years ago).<ref name="Pugh" /> Some of these ice rafts included boulders (known as 'glacial erratic' by geologists) like the Willamette meteorite, which eventually sank in the flood waters and settled where they were found by humans.

The deep crevasses of the meteorite resulted from both its high-speed atmospheric entry and its subsequent weathering. Exposed to the elements for thousands of years, rainwater interacted with the mineral [[troilite]], resulting in a form of [[sulfuric acid]] which slowly dissolved portions of the meteorite. This resulted in the gradual development of the hollows that are visible today.

==Modern history==
In 1902, Ellis Hughes was the first European settler to recognize the meteorite's significance.<ref name=Lange>{{Cite book |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XwhYgggGSMEnaAr4r0LXf0ZT_0h8Aovb/view |last=Lange |first=Erwin F. |title=The Williamette Meteorite 1902 – 1962 |date=1985 |publisher=[[Portland State College]] |location=[[Portland, Oregon]] |via=[[Google Drive]] |quote=republished from the original}}</ref> At that time, the land was owned by the [[Oregon Iron Company|Oregon Iron and Steel Company]]. Hughes attempted to claim ownership of the meteorite, and secretly moved it to his own land. This involved 90 days of hard work to cover the {{convert|3/4|mi|m}} distance. The move was discovered, and after a lawsuit, the [[Oregon Supreme Court]] held that Oregon Iron and Steel Company was the legal owner.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=2QwLAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA572 Oregon Iron Co. v.

In 1905, Sarah Tappan Hoadley, wife of [[William E. Dodge Jr.]], purchased the meteorite for $26,000 {{USDCY|26000|1905}}.

In 1998, museum curators cut a {{convert|28|lb|kg|adj=on}} section from the crown of the meteorite.<ref name=NYT>{{cite news |last=Chang |first=Kenneth |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2002/02/14/national/14METE.html |title=Uproar Over a Sliced, and Revered, Meteorite |date=February 14, 2002 |work=[[The New York Times]]}}</ref> That section was traded to a private collector for a {{convert|1/2|oz|g|adj=on|spell=in}} piece of a [[Martian meteorite]].<ref name=NYT/><ref name=insensitive/>

In 1999, the [[Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community of Oregon]] (CTGR), a confederation of [[Native Americans in the United States|Native American]] tribes, demanded that it be returned and filed an action pursuant to the [[Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act]] (NAGPRA) against the American Museum of Natural History. In response, the Museum filed a federal lawsuit seeking a declaratory judgment against the CTGR in 2000. An agreement with the Museum was reached later that year in which the meteorite would remain at the museum with tribal members being able to conduct a private ceremony around the meteorite once a year, and that ownership will be transferred to CTGR should the museum cease to have the meteorite on display.<ref name=nyt_pact>{{Cite news |last=Sullivan |first=John |url=http://partners.nytimes.com/library/national/science/062300sci-meteor-pact.html |title=Pact Leaves Meteorite With Museum |work=[[The New York Times]] |date=June 23, 2000}}</ref>

In early 2007, in response to a student's request, [[Oregon House of Representatives|Representative]] [[John Lim]] introduced a resolution that would demand that the museum return the meteorite to Oregon. The tribes said they were not consulted, they did not support the resolution, and were content with the current arrangement with the museum.<ref>{{cite news | last=Walsh | first=Edward | title=Oregon's Pet Rock | url=http://blog.oregonlive.com/politics/2007/03/oregons_pet_rock.html | date=March 26, 2007 | access-date=2010-10-23}}</ref>
