The Iliad and the Odyssey are two epic poems written by Homer (ÎÎ¼Î·ÏÎ¿Ï) around the 9th century BC. They are two of the oldest recorded written works in history.
Of the two epics, the Odyssey is the later both in setting and, probably, date of composition. The Iliad tells the story of the Greek struggle to rescue Helen, a Greek queen, from her Trojan captors. The Odyssey takes the fall of the city of Troy as its starting point and crafts a new epic around the struggle of one of those Greek warriors, the hero Odysseus. It tells the story of his nostos, or journey home, to northwest Greece during the ten-year period after the Greek victory over the Trojans.
