That's a very weak peg to hang your hat on as far as disputing historical issues with the Book of Mormon.
My understanding is that this evidence is definitively pre-Ice Age (none later than, what, something like 12,000 BC). And, uh, there are way more hooks in the closet. Trust me, I've been wrestling with these and dozens of other issues for years. And the side I was rooting for lost, go figure. I genuinely wanted the other side to win out.
