I came back today for the "to be continued" part, but alas! It is not here. When will we get the rest of the story?

Sooo... Brother Potter wasn't alone in finding 'Naham". It's good to have other sources.

I was glad to see this article in Meridian. I photo copied the article out of the Ensign under the title of "Book of Mormon Linked to Site in Yemen" that I'm sure was the follow up to what you have said in the above article as your name is listed along with two others. I carry that small article (laminated) in my Book of Mormon in 1 Ne. 16 but I forgot to date my copy so I don't remember which Ensign it was in. I will follow your continuation of todays article so hopefully I will be able to get that date. Thank you for you efforts in finding this evidence.

A wonderful and fascinating account! I look forward to the rest of the story. This was striking in so many ways, but I had just read the article about the LDS texts project for Project Gutenberg. The value of old texts is well proven here.

Interesting article. I thoroughly enjoyed the author's persistence in pursuing what otherwise would only have been a dream about "what might have been." Tenacity to further the Lord's work is always a wonderful opportunity to read about.

FASCINATING!! I can hardly wait for the rest of the article!! Are you going to write a book (even a small one) about your efforts and the results? Am terribly interested in this article!! Thanks. Sis. Bayba
Cal HenlineMarch 31, 2014
Thankful that a prompting was followed. I feel that Promptings are offered many times but brushed off due to issues we allow to override that still small voice...
John BowersMarch 31, 2014
Intriguing! Can't wait for the next installment.
Philip BakerMarch 31, 2014

Warren, we are so pleased to see your story in print. Listening to you while visiting Oman was fascinating. Please do not leave out a delicious detail in your next articles. Love the photos. We appreciate your insistence and faith in following the impressions that come through the Holy Ghost.
JaneMarch 31, 2014
Interesting--I will look forward to further articles. I would like to know many years transpired between the 1st trip to Yeman and your conclusion?

WHERE IS THE REST? Is this an intentional cliffhanger with only the "To be continued" left off, or are there another few paragraphs lying around that someone forgot to publish? Oh no, wait: have I just fallen for Meridian's April Fool's joke?
Angela ReedMarch 31, 2014
I read this article with such enthusiasm. I have always loved archeology and I am at present reading the Book of Mormon. I felt the spirit with me this morning as I read my scriptures and when I opened my email and found this article in the Meridian magazine I felt compelled to read it. Thank you for sharing your journey with us all, for your faith and courage to follow the prompting so you felt so strongly. I look forward to the follow up of this story.

Ross T. Christensen was my uncle. I lived with his family one semester while a student at BYU. I worked for him in his office with SEHA (Society for Early Historic Archaeology) with subscriptions. No doubt there are many more unfollowed hints, as he did some traveling and research himself.
robin allanMarch 31, 2014

Very interesting story. But where's the rest of it please? Thanks for sharing.

I note yet another Nahem researcher Come join the crowd of about six or so intrepid arm chair archeologists! Anciently, most Semitic languages has no vowels, hence the difference in pronunciation: e.g. Nehem, Naham, Nihim, ..Nhahom, personally I favor the last one. The easiest way to get to Nahom is to rent an official car (from the airport or a large modern hotel. You get a car, as well as the driver. You give vague instruction about the general area you would wish to travel, and at the appointed hopur you arrive at the rendevous place - and off you go Let the driver take you there. The driver vwill take you to the places you want to go. And Good Luck! You will se the cliff face cemetery, the town center of Hahom, and finally you will see an area od broken buildings. Talk to the guard, he will tall you that you are standing upon ground he is guarding for the tribe of Efrem, and if you let him talk, he will tell you about the cemeteries of Nahom! Challenge him, if you can, that you are a descendent of Ephraim! . .
