Helaman 3:9,12
9. and the people who were in the land Northward did dwell in tents, and in houses of cement, and they did suffer whatsoever tree should spring up upon the face of the land that it tshould grow up, that in time they might have timber to build their houses, yea, their cities, and their temples, and their synagogues, and their sanctuaries, and all manner of their buildings.
12. and it came to pass that there were many of the people of Ammon, who were lamanites by birth, did also go forth into this land.
If the Book of Mormon did in fact take place in Mesoamerica one can follow the cement cities of Palenque, Monte Alban, El Tajin, Teotihuacan, La Quemada, and Paqime all the way to modern day Arizona and the lands of the Hopi and other Pueblo tribes who are a peaceful people like the people of Ammon and who dwell in a form of cement pueblos. Of course many of these cities do date to Book of Mormon times and many others are after but one has to take into consideration the migration timeframes and understand that the Pueblo people (Hopi) are a migrating people.
