Abstract

This series is a detailed reconstruction of the epic milieu and ancient historical setting in the third millennium B.C. in Mesopotamia and Asia relative to details about the Jaredites: their ships, shining stones, government, wars, society, and worldview. The eighth part continues the author's argument of an Asiatic origin for the Jaredites and their approach to warfare.
