The ancient people were great seafarers, much better than current history texts indicate. In America alone, people have found ancient Celtic ogum script, Viking writings, and various others which I can't remember. My point is that, even if there is a monolith (megalith?) with the ten commandments, that would indicate that there was probably some Hebrew or Hebrews on that site in ancient times. That does not necessarily mean they were of the ten lost tribes (which we know were not really lost). In my sometimes humble opinion, any such an artifact most likely came from Hebrews who sailed with the Phoenicians or Egyptians or some of the other ancient mariners, some of which are mentioned in the ot as being trading partners with Israel during its brief period of empire / hegemony over nearby lands.

Someone posted the notion that that there is some stone in Mexico with the ten commandments written on it and so on. Is that just a fantasy to be accpted without proof or is there some supporting evidence. AND are you aware of the Smithsonian conclusion about the archeology of the New World and the Bofm?
