Odysseus was an hereditary king of Ithaca, so he was probably born there. (There is no specific mention of his birth - but there probably would have been if he was not native to his own kingdom).

In the Ancient world the fall of Troy was usually reckoned to around 1184 (though some other dates were also taken seriously). Odysseus would be around 40 at the time of the fall, having him born around 1220 BC.
