They were traditional poems passed from generations through oral traditions. Both epic poems are attributed to Homer but probably not written by him.

his poems
We know nothing of the life of Homer, except what we can deduce from what is in the poems themselves. All the documentary evidence we have about the author of the poems was written down centuries after the poems, and most of it is self-contradictory (at least seven ancient cities claimed to be Homer's birthplace). Scholarship can date Homer to the seventh or eight century BC with a reasonable amount of certainty, and the language of the poems seems to be mainly Ionian. Really, that is all we know about the author of the Iliad and the Odyssey.
Homer is the author who wrote about the Trojan War in his epic poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey.
