|title=Has Olishem Been Discovered?

|publication=Journal of the Book of Mormon and Other Restoration Scripture
|vol=22
|num=2
|date=2013
|summary=If indeed tablets from Hittite from the site identify it as Ullis, the it is probably the Ulisum that Naram-Sin attacked and is a likely candidate for Olishem. If Oylum Hoyuk is Olishem, the Ur of the Chaldees should be one of the dozens of Middle Bronze II sites in the Kilis plain. We await further discoveries and publications. At present, given the many uncertainties, we can regard this identification as promising but not proven.
