Alma the Elder (abt. 173B.C. - 91B.C.) was a High Priest in the land of Zarahemla. The Book of Mormon refers to him only as Alma but he is often designated as Alma the Elder to help distinguish him from his son whose name was also Alma. Alma the Elder played a significant role as recorded in the Book of Mosiah, first appearing in chapter 17. He was converted to the gospel through the preaching of Abinadi, led a secret branch of righteous families out from among a wicked people, and became high priest over the people of Nephi. He died at the age of 82 in 91 B.C (Mosiah 29:44-45).
