These copper objects are nothing more than expensive ceremonial objects. THAT'S why they're in graves. Copper by the way, is not in ANY way suitable for armor of ANY kind. Copper is EXTREMELY maleable and soft wouldn't offer anykind of protection. In order to protect yourself in copper armor, it would have to be so thick that its weight would negate any advantage it might offer. In Central America would die of heat stroke long before you ever reached the battlefield.
If those objects are armor, then why do they not resemble in ANY fashion the armor used in the bronze and iron age Fertile Cresent, where the people your "Nephites" are "SUPPOSEDLY" came from? The most sophisticated helm used in from that period (6th century BC) was the conical Assyrian helmet. Cheek guards were NOT used in the mideast until much later when Hellenic influences arrived. In fact, real Israelite and Judean soldiers were not noted for the large scale use of metalic armor.
That is absolute CRAP. A few RARE CEREMONIAL objects found in graves doesn't constitute a metalurgical industry capable of furning metalic armor for military purposes. Where are the smelting sites? The mines? I actually collect arms and armor of all kinds. Among my collection are reproductions of Hittite, Assyrian, Canaanite, and Egyptian armor and helms. That crap isn't armor or even pieces of armor.
And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.
Why then do those copper breastplates and spear heads not make it into archeological journals for ancient america?..Are they in dispute as to being authentic?...possibly frauds?
I'm confused as to how to take your comment above. I wasn't attacking this - just wondering why we don't see it in most archeological journals. I know that the mainstream museums avoid things like this also because they don't know what to make of it. There is a very stubborn community of historians/archeologists who cannot deal with things that do not fit in with thier pre-concieved notions - so they dismiss new discoveries that don't fit thier model of history...this may be why.
THIS IS FUCKING HILARIOUS

This video doesn't mention anything about datings, locations, civilizations, or language. There is no scholarship here.

Of course... it can't be taken seriously. After all, the Book of Mormon said it which brings about an automatic disqualification... *losers!*
