Many Cities Upon the Face of the Land

“And it came to pass that his father did build up many cities upon the face of the land, and the people began again to spread over all the face of the land.”  (Ether 10:21)

"And thus, they did enable the people in the land northward that they might build many cities, both of wood and of cement." (Helaman 3:11)

"And they also began in that same year to build many cities on the north, one in a particular manner which they called Lehi, which was in the north by the borders of the seashore."  (Alma 50:15)

 

All of these Cities Date Back to the Book of Mormon Time Period.

When the Book of Mormon was first published in 1830, no one knew the dates on these ancient cities.
