Odysseus is one of the Greek 'heroes' mentioned in the works of the famous ancient Greek poet Homer about the siege of the ancient city Troy. Homer wrote two books, on it, the Iliad and The Odyssey. In the Iliad (that deals with the siege and capture of Troy) Odysseus plays a minor role. But the book Odyssey is named after him and he is the principal character in it. This book describes Odysseus' many adventures during his journey back from Troy to his Greek island kingdom. His adventures end by his return to his island and his wife - and with him killing the men who more or less had taken over his palace, trying to convince his wife that he was dead and that she should choose one of them to marry.
