The Odyssey (
Greek Οδύσσεια (Odússeia)) is one of two major ancient
Greek epic poems attributed to the Ionian poet
Homer. The poem is commonly dated circa 800 to circa 600 BC. The poem is, in part, a sequel to Homer's
Iliad and mainly centers on the Greek hero
Odysseus (or Ulysses in
Latin, which is what the
Romans called him after they were told of his journeys) and his long journey home to
Ithaca, following the fall of
Troy.
