Would be interesting to examine any bones left behind since most older skulls indicate that the earliest inhabitants of at least North America were more in line with European/Middle Eastern peoples in bone structure.

I'm sure you all remember the Stella 5 at Izapa. Cool stuff and interesting coincidences, too!

The original stone itself weighs 15 tons and is 255 centimeters high

The Book of Mormon (Scroll about half way down the page.)

Mayan civilization and parallels to the Book of Mormon
I will say, we cheated here, in using a special colorization "Drug Enforcement photos" Satellite imaginer; only to discover a few cities/temple ruins in that area [Limestone comes out in yellow. A common material for building such buildings during the Mayans or Nephites/Lamanites].

First, I highly doubt that South America was first inhabitant when Adam was in the northern part of the Americas. Second I would caution everyone, the dates are mere speculation and not considered factual [If using Carbon-14, half life is 5,700years]. Seaweed being in the same place doesn't quantify that human habitant was during the same era.

Oh no, the young Earth speculation again.
