Odysseus was the king of Ithaca, husband of Penelope and father of Telemachus. He had originally been a suitor of Helen, cousin of Penelope and the most beautiful woman on earth, but he saw how many other suitors she had so asked to marry Penelope instead. But since he had originally intended to court Helen, he had to go to war when Paris, prince of Troy, stole her away from Sparta and her husband Menelaus. He managed to find Achilles, who had been hidden by his mother Thetis, a nymph, because she knew that he would die if he went to war. He thought of the Trojan Horse and was one of the soldiers hidden inside, which was a dangerous task in case the Trojans decided to set fire to the horse instead, but of course they brought it in and the Greeks sieged Troy. The war took ten years, but Odysseus didn't go home for another ten years, because several of the gods, namely Poseidon, were still angry at him and prevented him from going home. The Odyssey by Homer is all about his journey back home. Several of his challenges were the Cyclops Polyphemus, the witch Circe, Calypso, the Lotus Eaters, and the Sirens.
