Read the story.The answer has to be somewhere in the story, lol.
Odysseus is driven by curiosity toward the Cyclopes of the island. His crewmen wish to take the Cyclops's (Polyphemus) cheeses and sheep, however, and head back to the ship to resume their journey.
Odysseus takes 12 of his best men to explore the land of the cyclops including Polyphemus' cave.
Odysseus took his 12 best men and a goatskin of sweet black wine from the priest Maron to the cyclops cave.
I do not know that the cyclops did anything as revenge, but in the book the Odyssey ,it explains that the Cyclops' father , the god Poseidon, is angry at Odysseus and will not let Odysseus return to his country, whereas the other gods take pity on him.
Wine!
Odysseus and his men steal food and other items from Polyphemus' cave (a cyclops). They planned to take the materials and leave but Odysseus is curious to see what the cyclops looks like. They stay to meet Polyphemus, getting trapped in his cave. To get free they sharpen a wooden pole, get the cyclops drunk, and blind him by stabbing his eye while he's asleep. Polyphemus moves the large rock blocking the cave and Odysseus and his men escape clinging to the bellies of sheep.
to see what he and his crewmens can take from the cave but it backfires on them because the cyclops comes and is hostile towards them.
Fighting in the Trojan war, blinding the cyclops, you get the picture? take your pick
Because he is dumb. <~ are you serious right now... its because Odysseus wanted to see what the Cyclops had to offer
The Cyclops had no kids. The men escaped by holding to the undersides of the cyclops sheep. Their hands could not hold any of the cheeses while they were escaping.
The winds took Odysseus to many islands, including Ithaca. After the bag of winds was released, he was sent back to Aeolia.
They eat some of the cheeses that Polyphemus keeps in his cave. When they escape, they also take his sheep.sheep?
