The Nephites are described as a group of people that descended from or were associated with Nephi, the son of the prophet Lehi, who left Jerusalem at the urging of God c. 600 BC and traveled with his family to the Western Hemisphere, arriving in the Americas c. 589 BC. The Book of Mormon notes them as an initially righteous people who eventually "had fallen into a state of unbelief and awful wickedness" and were destroyed by the Lamanites c. AD 385.
Some Mormon scholars claim that the forebears of the Nephites settled somewhere in present-day Central America after departing Jerusalem. However, both the Smithsonian Institution and the National Geographic Society have issued statements that they have seen no evidence to support these claims in the Book of Mormon and no non-Mormon archaeologist or historian has supported their existence.

What Do We Know About Nephite Language? (Knowhy #583)
The Book of Mormon says that the Nephites wrote in Egyptian and Hebrew (Mormon 9:32-33), but these languages had been "altered" to the point that "none other people knoweth our language" (Mormon 9:34). New evidence linking the Uto-Aztecan language family (spoken primarily in western Mexico and the southwestern US) to Semitic and Egyptian languages may help us better understand how Nephite language changed over time.

Book of Mormon DNA
For more on this topic, please visit http://simonsoutherton.blogspot.com/
The Book of Mormon and LDS prophets identify today's Native Americans as literal descendants of Hebrews who traveled from Jerusalem in 600 B.C. and adopted the name of Lamanite. The Book of Mormon specifically mentions that they are descendants of Ephraim and Manasseh. DNA evidence contradicts this origin story, and the LDS church has had to backtrack on many of their false and racist ideas regarding Native Americans, their heritage, and their skin pigmentation.
