I just finished the book Serpent by Clive Cussler tonight. I think you would LOVE this book if you haven’t already read it. It’s amazing how much it ties in with what is happening today........and this post of yours’ is a tie-in, too.

"We have been looking everywhere in the Western Hemisphere for those Mormon tablets and the civilization that Joseph Smith claims existed here in the New World" said Bachand, an archaeologist at Brigham Young University.

I find these expeditions by the Mormons extremely exciting even if their motivation is directed to locating evidence to support the Book of Mormon. Along with Ancestory.com the Mormons have done a great deal of good tracking down the family trees of a majority of American citizens.

I'd like to hear the latest explaination that's behind the confusing rhetoric in the BOM. Please don't send two guys dressed in white shirts and ties!

I love the deep thought that goes into anthropology:

"These people were at the top of society, there is no doubt about it," (snip) "Slightly lower on society's ladder were two apparent human sacrifices, an adult and child, who looked as if they'd been tossed into the tomb."

"Tossed into the tomb" sounds pretty well down the social ladder to me.
