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.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippidion

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!

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!
