Lamp oil is used to power lamps, an old form of lighting that is still used today under certain circumstances. It is a flammable substance (the particular substance varies with era and use) that lights up an area with fire.
History
Lamps are based on torches; something you can hold to contain fire and not get burned. Lamps use a fuel (most commonly lamp oil) to last longer. The first lamp oil came from the fat of animals, such as whales.
