Perception of the maria as crystallize tsunamis reverses the usual course of scientific effort. Given an analytic solution in considerable detail, we here seek a convincing scenario that might have brought it about. It is now widely accepted that the Maria was generated within the period 4.0-3.7 Gya objects from the asteroid belt, after 400 billions of much smaller intra solar system junk that had brecciated the thin (10 km) plagioclase crust of the previously molten moon, which was then orbiting the earth at about half its present radius. Only the largest impacts were sufficiently energetic to perforate the crust and plunge through its substrate, as evidenced today by the ejection of mantle basalts in various amounts, among which least 66 multi-ring structures have been cataloged as maria, or, in the present context, frozen tsunamis.
