According to Paul Hoskisson, the name "Nehor" is a Jaredite name, and the Nephite apostate movements might have been inspired by Jaredite history. If this was the case, then the Jaredite cities (of the order of Nehor) might have been located more to the "north" (or downstream) of Zarahemla (due to the southern migrations of Jaredites and "Mulekites" from the land northward). Such a location was the case with the city of Ammonihah, which was a "city of Nehors" (Alma 16:11). This area is a possibility for the origin of the Amlicites.
