His Men.
This depends on which men you are talking about. Most of the men Odysseus kills, he kills in war against the Trojans. Odysseus kills many fellow Ithacans for wooing his wife Penelope. There are also many men that Odysseus 'sacrifices', such as the 6 men he loses to Scylla.
A whole lot of people and Gods and 'things'. This is going to be a long list so I'll just start off. * Lotus eaters * cyclops * Casandra * Mercury * Athena *
