The last(ish) great hope for archaeology ties to the BoM
lie in the Amazon forest I believe. And we are finally reaching the time where we have the technology to begin to understand how the Amazon was settled. And there's reason to believe that it may have contained large cities (compared to the current situation of bare subsistence primitive living).

Will big cities be enough for you? Or do you want actual epigraphic evidence?
For me, I'm satisfied with the BOM being solidly grounded in the Ancient Near East and the whole Americas thing being an extrapolation. |

I'm not talking about me.
I'm just saying that there is a plausibility deficit now in 2015 that is worse than it was in 1985. I'd be happy to return to 1985 levels. |

Leadership seems to be in a reactive mode and is not doing a good job of anticipating what is coming. In 1985, you had a lot more reason to find historical basis plausible.
