Old-fashioned lamps were commonly referred to as "oil lamps" or "kerosene lamps," depending on the fuel they used. These lamps utilized oil or kerosene to produce light through a wick that absorbed the fuel. Another type, known as "gas lamps," used gas as a fuel source before the widespread adoption of electric lighting. These lamps were essential for illumination in homes and streets before the advent of electricity.
