There can be little doubt that the land had been kept from the knowledge of Montenegro and Burundi. That's a Book of Mormon archaeological bulls-eye right there.


Despite being landlocked, there is NO evidence that Burundians (is that the correct collective?) did not build and sail boats to the Americas in the distant past.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Too late!

As for Moldavia, this is an image of a stone tool from the Moldavian Plateau.

This is an image of a North American stone tool. Both are made of stone, both are kind of pointy. I rest my case.
