The "Odyssey" is attributed to the ancient Greek poet Homer. It is believed to have been composed in the 8th century BCE, following the "Iliad," another of Homer's famous works. The exact date of its writing is uncertain, but it is generally thought to have been created around 750-700 BCE. Both epics were part of the oral tradition before being transcribed.
