It is public domain, copyright did not exist in Homer's time; and even if it did it only holds for 70 years past the death of the writer, which has long since expired.

Strictly speaking this applies only to the original work (i.e., the Greek text). A specific translation of the original work can be copyrighted just as any other document can; if you're planning on publishing a version in, say, English, make sure the copyright on the translation itself (if any) has expired.
