Over on the madhouse board they were discussing how could anyone possibly distinguish between nephite and non-nephite artifacts.
I propose the following as artifacts in the Americas that would more readily be identified as nephite:
*Minted coins
*Wheels
*Hubs
*Axles
*Chariots
*Steel swords
*Silk
*Horse tackle, harnesses, bits, bridles, halters, etc.
As midden heaps are the primary source of most artifacts we could also add:
*Horse bones
*Domestic goat bones
*Domestic swine bones
*barley seeds or pollen
*cattle bones
Ancient pieces of all of these items have been found in the old world, so it stands to reason that new world analogs could have survived to this date.
I hope this helps, and glad that I could be of service.
