Site Objective
The purpose of this blog is to provide a repository for scientific publications, religious articles, and additional informative posts relating to the history, peoples, and places of the Book of Mormon. It will focus on Middle Eastern and Mesoamerican studies that provide support for a "Pacific Passage Model" for Book of Mormon geography centered in Mesoamerica and a "Khor Kharfot" model for Lehi's land Bountiful in the Arabian Peninsula.
The Pacific Passage Model (PPM) was originated by Dr. F Richard Hauck in his publication Deciphering the Geography of the Book of Mormon, (Deciphering) 1988, Deseret Book. It has been re-introduced by Joe V. Andersen et al. in a recent publication The Pacific Passage Model for Book of Mormon Geography (Passage) 2018. Publications and articles from two not-for-profit organizations founded by Hauck, Archaeological Research Institute (ARI) and Research Applications for Mormon Archaeology and History (RAMAH), will also be featured in this blog. While ARI articles will provide results of scientific research and studies, RAMAH articles will focus more on the religious applications of these findings.
Blog entries will be principally authored by Lenard C. Brunsdale- a co-author in Passage and author of Atlas of Book of Mormon Geography.
