The famous South American horses from 3000 years ago.

Yep. Almost every ex-Mormon knows of this đŸ˜€

The anachronistic use of horses set in pre-Colombian America in the Book of Mormon is a real high point…

Hey, that's only 8000 years off any evidence we have for indigenous South American horses.

The time between now and the Great Pyramids being built is about 4500 years, and the last mammoths died out about 4000 years ago on a tiny island in Siberia, so this 8000 years is like no time at all!

Those legendary Mayan hippidions!

Maybe it's the time they took to fully make the statue from memory, you never know!

I wonder if the background dirt and grasses were isolated if a geoguesser can identify where in Asia this is.

I have years of experience in geolocation. My best guess, given the color of the soil and the unique foliage would be Detroit. (It's a little known corner of Asia, btw.)

This is authentic Roman armor. Let's how OxyClean takes care of those 3000 year old blood stains!
