According to Latter Day Saint theology, seer stones were stones that were sacred gifts from God. They are believed to have been used by Joseph Smith, as well as ancient prophets, to receive revelations from God. Some other early Latter Day Saints also possessed and used seer stones.
Smith owned at least two seer stones, which he had earlier employed for treasure seeking before he founded the church.[3] Other early Mormons, such as Hiram Page, David Whitmer, and Jacob Whitmer, also owned seer stones.[4] Seer stones are mentioned in the Book of Mormon in the Book of Mosiah, where they are also called "interpreters" and described as being used by seers to translate and receive revelations. The term "Urim and Thummim" is usually used by Latter Day Saints members to refer to the "interpreters" mentioned in the Book of Mormon. Some Latter Day Saints use the term Urim and Thummim and seer stones interchangeably.[5]
