800 BC -750 BC, assuming that he did live: most historians now think that he never existed as an actual person, but was 'invented' only hundreds of years later by the Greeks who wanted to name an author for the very ancient Iliad and Odyssey poems.

No one knows for certain but it is said that Home died on the island of Ios and his grave is supposedly located at Plakoto, today considered as a very popular tourist attraction on the island of Ios. Many say that his mother Clymene was from Ios and that is why he chose to spend his last days here. Some believe that he died of an illness while others believe that the locals had to kill him because he was unable to solve a riddle posed by them.

Homer is reputed to have lived in the second half of the 8th Century BCE, and his name often has 'the blind poet of Chios' after it. Nothing is certain.
