Amaleki information

According to the Book of Mormon, Amaleki (/əˈmæləkaɪ/)^[1] was one of several Nephite record keepers who maintained records on metal plates known as the plates of Nephi. The Book of Mormon refers to the small plates of Nephi^[2] and the large plates of Nephi.^[3] Nephi began writing on the small plates about 570 BC.^[4] Nephi's brother Jacob and his descendants began keeping records of sacred and religious matters on the small plates around 544 BC.^[5] Seven of Jacob's descendants, including Amaleki, wrote on the plates.^[6] Amaleki recorded his account on the plates about 130 BC. He states at the end of his writings that the plates are full.^[7] He received the plates of Nephi from his father Abinadom and penned 18 verses in the Book of Omni (Omni 1:12-30).^[8] He was the last person to write in the small plates of Nephi.^[9] Having no descendants, Amaleki gave the small plates to King Benjamin.^[10]
