In Volume IV of his Antiquities of Mexico, Lord Kingsborough found so many evidences of Biblical stories among the Indians that he concluded: "It is unnecessary to attempt in this place to trace out any further scriptural analogies in the traditions and mythology of the New World, since the coincidences which have already been mentioned are sufficiently strong to warrant the conclusion that the Indians, at a period long antecedent to the arrival of the Spaniards in America, were acquainted with a portion at least of the Old Testament.” [Quoted in Daniel Ludlow, A Companion to Your Study of the Book of Mormon, p. 409]
