"Then he dismembered them and made his meal,
gaping and crunching like a mountain lion –
everything: innards, flesh, and marrow bones.
We cried aloud, lifting our hands to Zeus . . .
but Cyclops went on filling up his belly
with manflesh and great gulps of whey"

-The Odyssey,
Homer



[What inference can be made about the Cyclops based on the passage?]

The Cyclops eats men because he is hungry and does not have any other source of food.

The Cyclops is more like a violent animal than a civilized man.

The Cyclops is very frightened and concerned with protecting himself from the men.

The Cyclops is deeply religious and is making a sacrifice to Zeus.
