they are trying to win his Odysseus's wife's hand in marriage
Odysseus purged his home of the suitors by first revealing his identity during a contest involving his bow, which only he could string. Once he successfully completed the challenge, he, along with his son Telemachus and loyal servants, launched a surprise attack on the suitors, killing them all. Afterward, he ordered the disloyal maids to be executed and had the house cleansed to restore order and sanctity to his home.
The first in his house to recognize Odysseus is his loyal swineherd, Eumaeus. In Homer's "Odyssey," Eumaeus shows remarkable loyalty and hospitality to Odysseus, even before he reveals his identity. Eumaeus's recognition highlights the deep bond of loyalty and friendship that exists despite the long years of Odysseus's absence.
