Excerpt from Improvement Era, Vol. 11: Organ of the Seventies and the Young Mens Mutual Improvement Associations; September, 1908 Utah is proud of her young men and women who have the will and courage to secure a modern education. Love of educa tion and a persistent seeking for it have always characterized the peoplecwho founded and built this state. If I have read the his tory of the pioneers correctly, they saw amidst the heated toil of the early years great visions of the day when their children and grandchildren should be the possessors of the world's best knowl edge, and should use it for the conquest of the mighty resources of the desert, then unconquered and forbidding. Compared with other commonwealths, founded under similar circumstances and of equal age, Utah ranks very high when the question of educational ideals and progress is raised. The spirit of education is in our state. It has taken hold of a large number of our young people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book explores the literate and advanced cultures of two very separate groups in the Book of Mormon, (1) the Jaredites described in the book of Ether, and (2) the members of tribal Manasseh who dominate the remainder of the Book of Mormon. The first group flourished during the millennia before the arrival of the second group in a nearby area, and became extinct as a civilization not long after the arrival of that second group. Within the New World, only one complex culture arose which was literate, built great cities, and had a large population, namely the Olmec of southern Mexico -- the "mother culture" of the five subsequent advanced cultures of Mesoamerica. This book demonstrates how the Mesopotamian Jaredites brought with them a Sumero-Akkadian culture to the New World. The linguistics of Sumero-Akkadian are not only found systematically within the Jaredite onomasticon, but a comparison of Sumero-Akkadian with reconstructed ancient Olmec (Proto-Mixe-Zoque) strongly suggests the ultimate origin of that people in Mesopotamia at least 5 thousand years ago. In the second section of the book, an offshoot of tribal Manasseh (Clan Lehi) demonstrates its pervasive influence through an onomasticon almost exclusively showing derivation from Manassite names known from the Bible and archeology, and which are collocated geographically with each other and with a set of names known biblically to be associated with transjordanian tribes and southern areas, such as Midian (where Clan Lehi first goes to make good its escape from Judah).
