According to the Book of Mormon, Zeram (/ˈzrəm/),[1] Amnor (/ˈæmnɔːr/),[2] Manti (/ˈmænt/),[3] and Limher (/ˈlɪmhər/)[4] were Nephite spies who lived in the 1st century BC[citation needed], and, under the direction of Alma, were sent to spy on the camp of the Amlicites during the war between the Nephites and that people.[5] These four spies witnessed the joining of the Amlicites with the Lamanites, and reported to the event to Alma, after which the Nephite army hastened back to Zarahemla in retreat.
