I agree that new discoveries provide more evidence towards the Book of Mormon.
I recently was led to a very interesting website, Ancient American, which is a magazine giving information about new discoveries. A lot of these discoveries are not made by professionals, nor are they always even sanctioned by professionals. That doesn't make them any less real or interesting. There are quite a few articles from the magazine available on the website.
