Case description

The daughter of the Count de Ribas reportedly awoke to a bright light from the patio of a home in Palma de Mallorca during July 1967. The Atlas gives only the month, while HUMCAT specifies July 7 at about 3:00 a.m. Her name, a precise property address and a fuller original interview were not established in the accessible material. Looking through a window, she allegedly saw two small figures apparently speaking to one another in the courtyard. Their heads were unusually large, possibly because they were wearing helmets, and their eyes appeared huge. When she tried the electric lights they did not work. She went to obtain candles; by the time she returned, the figures and light had disappeared. No craft, spoken exchange with the witness or observed route of departure is described in this sequence. Two marks were reportedly found on the exterior wall. The catalogue says they required scraping to remove and reappeared after painting. The Atlas also mentions footprints, but the fuller HUMCAT summary emphasizes the wall marks without supplying a comparable footprint examination. Antonio Ribera is named as investigator, with references to Flying Saucer Review and Ballester Olmos. These reported traces are not accompanied here by an identified laboratory finding. The plate keeps clothing and other unrecorded details approximate and adds no spacecraft.

Brief researcher retelling of the July 1967 Palma courtyard report. It uses the name Rebes and adds an unresponsive sister-in-law and three days in bed. No craft is described. Reported marks and the figures’ identity remain unverified; the original witness interview is not supplied. Brief contextual segment. July 7 is a catalogue precision; Atlas keeps July-only uncertainty. No craft or direct interaction established. Bedridden aftermath is a film addition.
