Polyphemus, the Cyclops from Greek mythology, was born to Poseidon, the god of the sea, and Thoosa, a sea nymph. His birth is not dated precisely in ancient texts, but he is often associated with tales set in the mythological era of ancient Greece. His story is most famously recounted in Homer's "Odyssey," which is believed to have been composed in the 8th century BCE.
