[1][2][3] In some accounts, the names of the two sons of Dardanus and Batea were Erichthonius and Zacynthus.
[4] After Dardanus died, his heir Ilus succeeded him to the throne.
However, after his long reign, he died childless and heirless.
His brother Erichthonius consequently gained the kingship, and became the ancestor of the later Trojans.
Homer's Iliad mentions at several points the tomb of Ilus in the middle of the Trojan plain.
