Alma 21:170 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.
Alma 24:54 And Teancum, by the orders of Moroni, caused that they should commence in laboring in digging a
ditch round about the Land or the City Bountiful.
Alma 24:55 And he caused that they should build a breastwork of timbers upon the inner bank of the
ditch; And they cast up dirt out of the
ditch against the breastwork of timbers.
