Summary
Memnon (Μέμνων), the eastern king allied to Troy — whose eastern origin (Susa, Aethiopia) the Greeks themselves affirmed — is read in node أخ-٤ on ʾ-m-n — grade ج — as مأمون/ميمون: the Trusted One, the Blessed. (المصدر: raw/greek/طروادة_عقد_جذور.md)
Symbolic Reading
The ally whose function is trustworthiness: he comes when called, from the East, and dies for the alliance. The Greeks placed his home in the East on their own account — the dossier reads the name as traveling with the man. The same element extends to Agamemnon (Ἀγαμέμνων) as a possible Greek-Semitic hybrid, "المأمون الأعظم" — the confederation's trustee (مؤتمن الحلف) — held at grade د+ because the aga- prefix is transparently Greek and hybrid names, though attested as a pattern, require caution.

Linguistic Root
ʾ-m-n. Confidence: ج for Memnon, د+ for the Agamemnon extension. (المصدر: raw/greek/طروادة_عقد_جذور.md)
Cross-Cultural Parallels
- The Colossi of Memnon at Thebes — Greek travelers hearing the East in an Egyptian monument's name; the name's eastern gravity persisted
- Sarpedon — the other honored eastern ally

Open Questions
- Is Agamemnon's -memnon element genuinely the same as Memnon's name, or a Greek formation on medomai/menō? The dossier flags the shared element as "worth a pause" but grades it deferred. Unresolved. (المصدر: raw/greek/طروادة_عقد_جذور.md)
