“Coriantumr Did Gather His Armies Together Upon the Hill”

Brant Gardner

In an event again hauntingly similar to the last stand of the Nephites, there is an arranged battle around a hill. In the Jaredite case, however, the result is different. The army on the hill took their advantage and beat back the other army, unlike the final decimation of the Nephites. In spite of the different outcome, it is certain that Moroni saw and understood a parallel between the two time periods.
