This was a widely spread opinion that
couldn't be backed by a single evidence.
The first Spanish priests comming to
Peru in the 16th century, began to try
to explain the origin of the native
people they found. They tried to identify
the biblical patriarchs we descent from.
They also thought on migrations from
the Old World, semitic peoples, etc.
well, they imagined all that could be
imagined. Your quotation above seems a
product of that thinking.

Well, during the Spanish Colonia, it was widely accepted
that some of the apostles had preached in Perú.
Take a look at "Tradiciones Peruanas" by Ricardo Palma,
a genuine classic peruvian literature book (some
traditions gathered by Palma do support this view).
I think that Thomas was referred as one of these
apostles.

It's my opinion but, if sons of Lemen (whose suppossed
descent are we amerindians) spoke the same language
than Nephri, that is "the language of the egiptians".
Shouldn't we suppossed to speak some kind of
egiptian-like language in the Americas, some kind
of lexical basis in native languages, some kind of
grammatical resemblance with egiptian in native languages?
