AIATH is cited in the Book of Mormon as an ancient Near Eastern place name עית, but is not given in the Book of Mormon as a geographical name in its own right.[1]

Variants

Notes


  1. Reynolds, George, Dictionary of the Book of Mormon, 13, speculates that this is another name for the biblical city Ai. Köhler-Baumgartner's Lexicon gives the meaning of 'Ai as "heap of stones."
