I.Elder of Troy
As Laomedon's son Lampus sits among the Trojan gerontes who watch Helen from the wall. His son Dolops, skilled with the spear, fights and falls in the Iliad — a Laomedontid branch beside Priam's house.
The name also belongs to horses (Eos', Helios', Hector's team, Diomedes' mares) and to minor humans (a son of Aegyptus; a Theban ambusher). The atlas id lampus-trojan is the Trojan elder and Dolops' father alone.
