List of Jupiter trojans (Greek camp)

This is a list of Jupiter trojans that lie in the Greek camp, an elongated curved region around the leading Lagrangian point (L4), 60° ahead of Jupiter in its orbit. All the asteroids at Jupiter's L4 point have names corresponding to participants on the Greek side of the Trojan War, except for 624 Hektor, which was named before this naming convention was instituted.
