Introduction

All of the evidence that has been accumulated through the investigation of archeologists, the study of the later Greek writers, and comparative historical and anthropological studies indicated that indeed the City of Troy did exist and that a war did take place as described in the Iliad and the Odyssey. There probably was a real king of Ithaca named Odysseus, but many of the adventures in the Odyssey are clearly products of the fantasy of sailors and travelers of the time. Now it is time once again to combine fact and fantasy as Homer did and create a project based on what the epic tells about Ithaca, Odysseus, his travels, his battles, his friends, his foes and his Odyssey.
