- 21) And they gave an account of one Coriantumr, and the slain of his people. And Coriantumr was discovered by the people of Zarahemla; and he dwelt with them for the space of nine moons.
- 22) It also spake a few words concerning his fathers. And his first parents came out from the tower, at the time the Lord confounded the language of the people; and the severity of the Lord fell upon them according to his judgments, which are just; and their bones lay scattered in the land northward.
Notes
As this record was written on a large stone, it is expected that Coriantumr did not write it and bring it with him to Zarahemla, but rather, spent his 9 months among the people of Zarahemla creating the record. It is not known what has been done with this record, or how significant the keepers of the sacred records among the Nephites considered it to be.
