Book of Mormon Geography Explained (Part 1 of 2): Lehi’s Landing and the Four Seas

This is Part 1 of a two-part series on Book of Mormon geography. In this episode of Christ in Peru, researcher George Potter examines one of the most important starting points for understanding Book of Mormon lands: Lehi’s landing place in the Americas and the identification of the four seas mentioned in the Book of Mormon. Drawing on early Church history, statements from Joseph Smith, Oliver Cowdery, and other early leaders, this presentation explains why South America, specifically Chile, was long taught as Lehi’s beachhead in the Promised Land. From there, the video explores how Nephi’s people journeyed northward into the Andes and eventually settled in Peru. This episode also focuses on a key geographic clue found in the Book of Mormon: references to four distinct seas. By comparing Book of Mormon language with ancient usage and Quechua terminology, George Potter identifies compelling candidates for the west, south, east, and north seas of Nephite lands, including the Pacific Ocean, Lake Poopó, Lake Titicaca, and Chinchayqucha (Lake Junín). Part 2 will continue this series by examining additional geographic features mentioned in the Book of Mormon, including mountains, rivers, narrow necks of land, natural harbors, and major Nephite cities.
