How did Odysseus' men die?

Answer 1

Well, honey, Odysseus' men died in a variety of ways during their journey back from Troy. Some were eaten by a Cyclops, others were turned into pigs by a witch, and a few got a little too curious and opened a bag of wind that blew them off course. It was basically a Greek tragedy buffet of bad luck and poor decisions.

Answer 2

Oh, dude, Odysseus' men died in a variety of ways on their journey back home. Some got eaten by a Cyclops, others were turned into pigs by a sorceress, and a bunch drowned after messing with Helios' cattle. It was like a really messed up Greek mythology version of a survival reality show.

Answer 3

In Homer's epic poem, "The Odyssey," many of Odysseus' men died on their journey home due to various reasons. Some were eaten by the Cyclops Polyphemus, others were turned into swine by Circe, and some were killed by the Laestrygonians. Additionally, many of Odysseus' men died due to their own recklessness and disobedience, such as opening the bag of winds given to them by Aeolus.

Answer 4

Many of them died in the Trojan war.

6 men were killed on each ship by the Cicons.

4 of the men were eaten by the cyclops Polyphemus.

Many were killed in Lamus - Telepylus, the land of the Laestrygonians; only one ship survived.

1 fell off Circe's roof waking up there after he fell asleep on the rooftop while drunk. (Elpenor)

6 of them were snatched by Scylla as they passed her.

The rest of the men (37-39) were killed when Zeus smashed their ship off of Thrinacia.
