 | | He claimed that the sculptor of Stela 5 was indeed a Nephite, and he echoed Jakeman's claim that Izapa represented definite Nephite or Lamanite culture in the area and even that Izapa had likely been a Nephite temple center. | | | This article presents a historical sketch of the reactions by Latter-day Saints and others to this claim about Stela 5 and discusses some of the historical implications of acceptance or rejection of Jakeman's theory. | | | As for Sorenson's comment, Jakeman said that he also was not qualified to speak on the matter because he had not himself studied Stela 5. |

| | Finally, the ring-tailed fish in the right hand of the Sariah figure has apparently been sacrificed with the instrument in the left hand. | | | Stela 5 is not only the probable story of Lehi and his family in association with their partaking of the fruit of the tree of life, but it also represents the symbolic quest for eternal life by all mankind. | | | Justification for such a viewpoint comes from what is considered a lack of convincing evidence. |
