 asteroid
According to this idea, the newborn Jupiter gravitationally scattered nearby large planetesimals — accreting lumps of matter in the embryonic stage of planet-formation — some of which may have been as massive as Earth is today.
Some of these big planetesimals strongly perturbed the orbits of the planetesimals in the region of the asteroid belt, raising their mutual velocities to the average 5 km/s seen today.
Ever since, the asteroids have been collisionally evolving so that, with the exception of the largest, most present-day asteroids are either remnants or fragments of past impacts.
