Odysseus Hercules Famous Heroes Hercules: he grew up to become the hero who beat the odds time and again, performed amazing, often helpful tasks, and yet was full human Achilles: he was the best warrior in the Trojan war, he was dipped in the Styx River and was then unbeatable except his ankle where he wasn’t dipped Theseus: he was the hero of Athens, he saved the people of Athens from having to send off their children as sacrifices Odysseus: he came up with the idea of the Trojan Horse, and he also survived 10 years of war and then 10 years at sea then he came home, only few Greeks did that
