Answer:

Odysseus was Greek King of Ithaca, and he left behind his wife Penelope and newborn son Telemach when he went to battle for King Agamemnon in the Trojan War.

Step-by-step explanation:

Odysseus was the central figure in Odysseus Homer's epic poem. The Trojan War lasted ten years and was completed when Odiseus came up with the ingenious idea of building a huge horse, hiding thirty men inside it, and presenting it as a gift of surrender to the Trojans. After the horse was dragged inside the city walls, people waited until the Trojans slept and opened the door for the Greek army to come and win the war.
