Odysseus was a legendary Greek hero and the central character in Homer's epic poems, the "Iliad" and the "Odyssey." He is known for his intelligence, cunning, and resourcefulness, particularly demonstrated through his clever strategies during the Trojan War and his long journey home to Ithaca after the war. As the King of Ithaca, he embodies the archetype of the clever hero, often referred to as "wily" or "cunning." His adventures highlight themes of perseverance, loyalty, and the quest for identity.
