Lehi Stone

Tree of Life

The Lehi Stone is an archeological artifact that was discovered in 1941 by archaeologist Matthew W. Stirling. The carving has been dated to the Preclassic Guillen Phase between 300 BC and 50 AD. While both LDS and Non-LDS scholars continue to debate the interpretation of the carving, it's hard to ignore its striking similarity to Lehi's dream referred to as the "Tree of Life" as found in the Book of Mormon - 1 Nephi chapter 8. Some of those similarities to Lehi's dream include the tree of life, the people eating fruit, and over 130 others, not to mention the location in which it was found, and it being dated exactly when The Book of Mormon characters would have been. Individually or even a handful of these evidences would be interesting, but all of these together makes this an intriguing validating testament of Book of Mormons authenticity.
