Wonderful story..thanks SC

ALthough there are debates about whether the island of Ithaka is the same Ithaka of Homer (some say it is other islands nearby), Homer himself described it thus:

” dwell in shining Ithaca. There is a mountain there,
high Neriton, covered in forests. Many islands
lie around it, very close to each other,
Doulichion, Same, and wooded Zacynthos—
but low-lying Ithaca is farthest out to sea,
towards the sunset, and the others are apart, towards the dawn and sun.
It is rough, but it raises good men.”
