Panthous

*Pa/nqoos), one of the elders at Troy, was married to Phrontis, and the father of Euphorbus, Polydamas, and Hyperenor. (Hom. Il. 3.146, 14.450, 17.24, 40, 81.) Virgil (Aen. 2.319) makes him a son of Othrys, and a priest of Apollo, a dignity to which, according to Servius on this passage, he was raised by Priam; originally he was a Delphian, and had been carried to Troy by Antenor, on account of his beauty. (Comp. Lucian. Gall. 17.)
