The [[Amalekites]] were a group of bandits in the Bible.
After the Amalekites attacked the [[Israelites]], the LORD commanded [[Moses]] to kill everyone of them (including women, children and infants). Many Bible schoolers concur that this was a necessary act and the Amalekites deserved it.<ref>http://bible.cc/1_samuel/15-3.htm</ref>

Like other tribes such as the [[Edomites]], the Amalekites were named after a man, Amalek, from whom they were believed to be descended.
