★ Native Americans

The remains of shellfish once eaten on the site were carbon dated.  The results were sensational.  The earliest date is 730 B.C.  This means that the settlement could have been founded 2,700 years ago.  What has been discovered has changed our entire view of the people who once lived here.  ibid.  

 

 

They (the Mormon townspeople) sent messengers requesting that the Paiutes go into town and hear a letter read to them.  Many did.  They gathered in the meetinghouse to hear Bishop William Allred address them.  According to a previous plan, the Circleville men who outnumbered the Indians three to one came in unarmed and intermingled with them.  The bishop read the message from Fort Sanford, stressing that the settlers wanted only peace with their band, but the Indians would have to help by lending them their guns.  In return, the Paiutes could work for the whites and be paid in goods.  When the Indians showed reluctance to give up their weapons, the settlers acted: ‘Each man knowing his place and what was expected of him, grabbed hold of his Indian … to disarm [him].  They all showed resistance but their bows and arrows and knives were taken from them’.  Next, ‘their arms were tied to a stick which was passed behind their backs and under their arms’.  Bishop Allred would later put his own twist to the incident in his report to LDS church authority George A Smith, writing that it took some time to convince the Indians, but they ‘reluctantly surrendered their weapons’.  Captain James Allred (Mormon army) and his men went to the camp to apprehend those who had earlier refused the ‘invitation’.


... The rest of the Paiutes were taken to the meetinghouse, where the women and children were separated from the men and taken to an unused cellar that had been dug for a proposed flourmill.  The prisoners numbered about sixteen men and probably about as many women and children.  Linda King Newell, A History of Paiute Country, citing the James Munson and Oluf Larsen journals

 

Towards evening … some of the [captives] succeeded in getting loose and commenced an attack upon the guard, knocking two of them down.  The guard was afraid of a general break … hence the guard opened fire and shot two of the Indians ... after a short consultation it was decided that the settlement would be in danger if the Indians were allowed to escape.  Though the people loathed the thought of killing them, it was nevertheless concluded to do so.  ibid.  citing Rex Fullmers account from James Munsons journal 

 

 

The truth is that Native Americans have occupied the New World for at least 13,000 years.  This is an indisputable fact that the LDS Newsroom overlooks.  They widely colonised North and South America for TEN THOUSAND years before Lehi allegedly arrived.  For over a century mainstream archaeologists, geneticists and anthropologists studying Native Americans have believed their ancestors migrated from Asia across dry land (Beringia) exposed during the last ice age.  The DNA evidence suggests a slightly earlier arrival date of about 16,000 years ago.  It hasn’t changed things much. 

 

... The problem is all that Asian DNA (99.5%) which arrived in the Americas in excess of 15,000 years ago.  The only non-Asian DNA (0.5%) is either European or African and derived from post Columbus admixture.  Simon Southerton, board post February 2014, ‘Book of Mormon and DNA Studies’
