Odysseus is a clever man because when the Sirens came trying to lure the crow in he put waxs in their ears and tied them to the ship. Another time that Odysseus was very clever was when he was with the cyclone, he tied himself and his crow under the flock of sheep so when the cyclone put his hand across the sheep's back they would not be found. Also a different way to look at it is Odysseus went throw a great ordeal without a his clever brain he probably would have never made it home.
Odysseus is a very strong man because he was strong enuf to tie his crow to the ship
