Abstract

Cazier gives a brief summary of Nephite history, and then suggests two possible explanations to the question posed in the title. (1) “Alma and his brethren” includes ancestors involved in the original colonization effort. (2) Perhaps a different time frame is involved and it is possible that Alma came from Zarahemla to colonize.
