High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A limited geography model for the Book of Mormon is one of several theories by Latter Day Saint movement scholars that the book's narrative was a historical record of people in a limited geographical region, rather than of the entire Western Hemisphere as believed by some early Latter Day Saints. These models have situated the book's events in South America, Mesoamerica, and the Great Lakes area. One popular LDS theory places the setting for the Book of Mormon in the vicinity of Mexico and Central America surrounding the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (Southerton 2004, p. 157). Others recognize a setting among the mound builders as the book s original setting. This North American setting is gaining support in the LDS community. The mound builder setting better parallels the academically accepted literary setting for the Book of Mormon. Other recent proposals include the Malay Peninsula and Baja California.
