Thrinacia

This is the land of the Sun God. Odysseus and his men stopped here because they were tired of traveling and wanted a break. Odysseus was told by Tiresias not to eat the cows on this island, because Helios, the Sun God, is very protective of her cattle. Odysseus tells his men not to eat the cows, but they don’t listen. Once they leave the island, Zeus punishes the men by killing them in a storm, all of them except for Odysseus, who washes up on an island.
