Ammoron

:"Ammoron should not be confused with Amaron, Ammaron, or Amoron, three other Book of Mormon figures with similar names."According to the Book of Mormon, Ammoron was a Nephite traitor. He was a descendant of Zoram and succeeded his brother Amalickiah as the king of the Lamanites. Amalickiah, as king, had started a major war with the Nephites which the Nephites had hoped would end with his death. However Ammoron seized power and determined to carry-on the war of his brother. Eventually his armies were defeated in and he was slain by Teancum.
