So, I continually get posts about the fact that the people of The Book of Mormon, their writings and other things have never been uncovered by scientists and archeologists. My take on what has been uncovered may still be some of the civilizations written about in The Book of Mormon. But, my comeback to those who use this as their argument against the book is that we have actually unearthed and studied a small fraction of the many civilizations that have existed in the Americas, especially in South America and Mexico. Well, here is a brand new finding of this massive extent that Lidar radar has been finding. As stated in the article of Science News, this civilization existed around 500 B.C. which would make it 100 years after Lehi and Nephi came to the Americas from the Jerusalem region.
An ancient, massive urban complex has been found in the Ecuadorian Amazon
Found by airborne laser scans, this settlement and others throughout Mesoamerica and the Amazon are shifting how archaeologists think about urbanism.
