That there were cities on the American continent 2500 years ago? Is this supposed to vindicate the Book of Mormon as somehow being truthful?



No. Believing in a religious text because of some archeological evidence would be like doing math through prayer.

But I do find it at least a bit ironic that one of the critiques of the book I have seen most commonly has been "If there were so many people, where were all the cities?"
