Odysseus meets the Cyclops, Polyphemus, before he lands on the island of Phaeacia. This encounter occurs in Book 9 of Homer's "Odyssey," where Odysseus and his men find themselves trapped in the Cyclops' cave. They escape after blinding Polyphemus, which leads to further adventures before they eventually reach Phaeacia in later books. The timeline of events in the narrative clearly places the Cyclops encounter prior to their arrival on Phaeacia.

'I am Laertes' son' is the beginning of the Odyssey. The section is about Odysseus, son of Laertes, telling the beginning of his hard journery to King Alcinous on the island of Phaeacia. Before he was washed ashore to the island of Phaeacia, Odysseus has lost all his men on boats. He is the only one to survive the harsh journey, but yet, he is not home. Poseidon, God of the Sea, makes it rough for Odysseus to reach home, to Ithaca. When Odysseus is washed ashore on the island of Phaeacia, women that work for the king discovers Odysseus and takes him to bathe, feed, and cloth. Thus, when Odysseus eats with King Alcinous during a festival, he tells him who he is and begins his story of why he hasn't returned home for ten years.
he tricks the cyclops into thinking his name is "nobhdy" to escape the island
The cyclops
as Odysseus sailed away he said to Polyphemus '' it is I Odysseus who blinded you.''
in the poem "the odyssey," Odysseus himself trys to be clever and tells the cyclops his name is Nohbdy. so when they stabbed the cyclops' eye, the cyclops shouted nobody has done this to me! But, when Odysseus is on his way to leave the island, he gloats and says "it is i Odysseus!"
When Odysseus arrives in Phaeacia the first person he meets is Nausicaa. Nausicaa is the daughter of King Alcinous and gives Odysseus clothes to wear.
