| Linguistics | A FAIR Analysis of: Criticism of Mormonism/Books, a work by author: B.H. Roberts, edited by Brigham D. Madsen
|
Origin |
The use of the word "cimeter" is dated to about 450 A.D., but the Book of Mormon mentions it around the middle of the fifth century B.C.
}}
B.H. Roberts notes that "it will be said...that silk is unknown among the Americans," and that there was no evidence of silk among the natives when Europeans arrived in the New World.
}}
B.H. Roberts poses the question, "Can we...say that the domestic animals, the horse, the cow and the ox, sheep, goats, and swine, were known and used by Americans within historic times, previous to the discovery of America?
}}
"Can we successfully assert ...that it was an iron and steel age civilization...rather than a stone age culture...?
