There is a hill called Cumorah in New York State that was the site of a massive battle between the "lamanites" and the "nephites"

The Book of Mormon states that there were in excess of 220,000 nephites that were slain. Surely there was a comparable number of lamanites that fell there too. The book claims the people of that time were acquainted with metalergy.
Surely there must be some remnant to substantiate the Mormon claims.

"Mormon 6:11": 11 And when they had gone through and hewn down all my people save it were twenty and four of us, (among whom was my son Moroni) and we having survived the dead of our people, did behold on the morrow, when the Lamanites had returned unto their camps, from the top of the hill Cumorah, the ten thousand of my people who were hewn down, being led in the front by me.

"Mormon 6:12": 12 And we also beheld the ten thousand of my people who were led by my son Moroni.

"Mormon 6:13": 13 And behold, the ten thousand of Gidgiddonah had fallen, and he also in the midst.

"Mormon 6:14": 14 And Lamah had fallen with his ten thousand; and Gilgal had fallen with his ten thousand; and Limhah had fallen with his ten thousand; and Jeneum had fallen with his ten thousand; and Cumenihah, and Moronihah, and Antionum, and Shiblom, and Shem, and Josh,
had fallen with their ten thousand each.

"Mormon 6:15": 15 And it came to pass that there were ten more who did fall by the sword, with their ten thousand each; yea, even all my people, save it were those twenty and four who were with me, and also a few who had escaped into the south countries, and a few who had deserted over unto the Lamanites, had fallen; and their flesh, and bones, and blood lay upon the face of the earth, being left by the hands of those who slew them to molder upon the land, and to crumble and to return to their mother earth.

There was a hill called Cumorah where the battle took place, and afterwards Moroni took the plates very far away and hid them in the side of a hill that we today call Cumorah, after the name of that first hill. They are not the same hill at all. You will not find Windsor Castle in London, when it's London, Ontario you are looking for it in.

If you want to look over some finding that do substantiate our claims, check these out:
