We find in Mormon's account of the final battle at Cumorah that he organized his men into groups of ten thousand (see Mormon 6:10-15). According to Jerry Ainsworth, it appears that the Lamanites may have also organized their armies in regiments of ten thousand, as Mexico a Traves de los Siglos states: "The lance with a large obsidian point seems to have been the weapon of the most noble and distinguished people of the south. The Chief of the warrior class was the Hunictok; he was the Chief of ten thousand lances." This statement tends to show that the Lamanite as well as the Nephite armies were organized by groups of ten thousand. It also might imply that each regiment of ten thousand specialized in a specific weapon (ten thousand archers, ten thousand lancers, etc.). [Jerry L. Ainsworth, The Lives and Travels of Mormon and Moroni, p. 181]
