* Locrus, son of [[Phaeax (mythology)|Phaeax]] and brother of [[Alcinous]] who emigrated to Italy where he married [[Laurinaitis|Laurina]], the daughter of [[Latinus]]. [[Heracles|Herakles]] at about that time was driving [[Geryon|Geryon's]] beautiful cows from [[Erytheia (mythology)|Erytheia]]. He arrived and was hosted kindly by Lokros. Latinus came to visit his daughter, saw and fancied the cows and drove them away. Discovering this, Herakles shot with his bow and killed him, and brought back the cows. Lokros, fearing Herakles might suffer something terrible at the hands of Latinus, who was strong in body and spirit, had hastened to the aid of his guest, having put on military gear. Herakles seeing him running and thinking he was someone rushing to support Latinus, loosed a shaft and killed him. After he learned he mourned loudly and conducted the rites for him. And when he had passed from among men he appeared to the people as a ghost and ordered them to establish a city by the tomb of Lokros. And the city keeps the name in honor of Lokros.[[Conon]], 3
