"...[Joseph L.] Allen...notes that two Jaredite names, shule (Xui) and Com have survived the millennia and may be represented in the mayaya a cultures of Guatemala and Yucatan. There are also correspondences in place names. A common ending for words in both maya and the book of Mormon is ha.
For example, Xelha, Balamha, Altunha, Pulsiha etc. are mirrored by Book of Mormon names such as Nephihah, Moronihah and Ammonihah there is reported to be a community in the frontiers of Mexico and Guatemala named Cumen. It may have been established by one of the Lord's twelve disciples who was called Kumen.
There is also an archaeological site in Belize called Lamanai it dates to 100 BC when there was a Lamanite king by the name of Lamoni. Names beginning with Co, Koare are rather common in the Mayan language. For example, there is a town in the Yucatan peninsula called Co-Com. Book of Mormon names beginning with Co include Cohor, Korihor, Corianton and Conoriantumr."
