Amalekites
First mentioned in the missionary chapters of the sons of Mosiah, the Amalekites of the Book of Mormon are described as a group of Nephite apostates. They are credited with building the city of Jerusalem in the land of Jerusalem within the land of Nephi, alongside Lamanites and Amulonites. The character of the Amelekites is described as "more hardened than the Lamanites". In the various wars, the Amalekites are appointed captains because of their murderous dispositions. Religiously, the Amalekites are after the order of Nehor. When Aaron, the son of Mosiah, enters their land, the Amalekites are among those who contend with him. Though they confess to believe in God, only one Amalekite is converted. Because of them, the Lamanites are spurred on to kill their own people, the Anti-Nephi-Lehies. During the various wars between the Nephites and Lamanites, they are described as being better armed and continually inspire the Lamanites to fight.
The Nuttall Encyclopedia
Amalekites
a warlike race of the Sinaitic peninsula, which gave much trouble to the Israelites in the wilderness; were as good as annihilated by King David.
