Alma 48:8

Yea, he had been strengthening the armies of the Nephites,

and erecting small forts, or places of resort;

throwing up banks of earth round about to enclose his armies,

and also building walls of stone to encircle them about,

round about their cities and the borders of their lands;

yea, all round about the land.

Alma 49:13

For they knew not that Moroni had fortified,

or had built forts of security, for every city in all the land round about;

therefore, they marched forward to the land of Noah with a firm determination;

yea, their chief captains came forward and took an oath

that they would destroy the people of that city.

Alma 49:18

Now behold, the Lamanites could not get into their forts of security

by any other way save by the entrance,

because of the highness of the bank which had been thrown up,

and the depth of the ditch which had been dug round about,

save it were by the entrance.
