Hebrew Temple In MesoAmerica?

Critics of the Mormon belief that ancient Hebrews emigrated to Central/South America thousands of years ago will not want to read about recent research that shows that the Temple of Solomon, the Tabernacle in the Wilderness, and the ruins of Izapa in Mexico all have the same dimensions.

The story includes this paragraph:

From the cloth and wood tabernacle, to the stone temple of Solomon, to the huge complex of buildings in Izapa, there was a correlation in size, according to Hauck. "The measurements system used to design Izapa, and the basic architecture in Izapa were copied directly from sacred architecture employed by Moses and Solomon."

Of course none of this is surprising to Latter-day Saints who believe in the Book of Mormon. It is only uncomfortable for our critics. To read the whole story click here.
