Thanks for thinking of me, Perry. This is
interesting. I have several books on finds in Central America. The
current thinking of many church members is that most of the events in the BoM
took place south of the American/Mexican border. The evidence there is
much more abundant. I try to remember, however, that the BoM account
emphasizes that the Nephite civilization was wiped out by around 380 AD.
There was a great amount of written material when the Spaniards first arrived in
the Central American area, but according to history I have read, vast numbers of
these materials were gathered up and burned by the Priests, who condemned the
writings as being of the devil. There is no telling for sure what they
contained. The few codexes that survived do not say much, but do depict
white people mixing among darker people. The Kon Tiki Expediton, put
together by one Thor Hyerdahl, was done to show that the Pacific Islanders
originally emigrated from the American Continent, and there is a great deal of
evidence of two different races living on the islands--a white and a brown
race. Captain Cook's artists drew pictures of Whites and Brown people
living together there until, as in the Americas, the whites were exterminated or
assimilated in the wars. Hyerdahl also found hair of Islander's more
distant ancestors that was blond and red colored. The huge stone statues
on Easter Island have topknots on them made of red stone, in contrast to the color of the stone
beneath the topknots. Noone of the present generation seems to know what
it all means, of course.
