Jaredites

The Jaredites (/ˈdʒærədaɪt/) are one of four peoples (along with the Nephites, Lamanites, and Mulekites) described in the Book of Mormon as having settled in the ancient Americas.

In the Book of Mormon (mainly its Book of Ether), the Jaredites were described as the descendants of Jared and his brother, who lived at the time of the Tower of Babel. According to the Book of Mormon, they fled across the ocean on unique barges and established an ancient civilization in America.
