They split the sheep of the cyclops among the men and had a feast, sacrificing the ram to Zeus.
Odysseus and the crew rescue themselves from the cyclops. Odysseus later escapes under Polyphemus' largest ram.
Odysseus hides under Polyphemus' largest ram as it exits the cave.
After his men stabbed Polyphemus' (cyclops) eye in the cave, he ties each to the belly of 3 rams. Since everyone else was already tied up he had no one to tie him and had to hold on to the belly of the ram for over 16 hours.
Medea conspired to have Pelias's own daughters kill him. She told them she could turn an old ram into a young ram by cutting up the old ram and boiling it. During the demonstration, a live, young ram jumped out of the pot. Excited, the girls cut their father into pieces and threw them in a pot. Pelias did not come back out of the pot.
The cyclops was suspicious since the ram was usually the first to leave the cave, but in this case it was the last to leave.
"I wish I could buy a ram at the pet store"
They split the sheep of the cyclops among the men and had a feast, sacrificing the ram to Zeus.
Odysseus and the crew rescue themselves from the cyclops. Odysseus later escapes under Polyphemus' largest ram.
Odysseus rode underneath a ram, out of Polyphemus' cave.
As he puts his hand on his lamb Cyclops says, "Would that you, the best of my flock, were endowed with speech, so that you might tell me where Noman, who has blinded me, has hidden himself."
It is ironic because the cyclops is known for his brutality and lack of mercy, yet he shows a brief moment of tenderness towards the ram. This unexpected act contrasts with his usual behavior and adds a touch of irony to the situation.
Odysseus hides under Polyphemus' largest ram as it exits the cave.
In Homer's "Odyssey," the cyclops Polyphemus loses his sight and his rams after being blinded by Odysseus. Homer does not present a sympathetic view of the cyclops, portraying him as a monster who devours Odysseus' men. Instead, the focus is on Odysseus' cunning and survival tactics in outwitting the cyclops.

Odysseus uses his cleverness in the Cyclops episode by introducing himself as "Nobody," so when he blinds the Cyclops, Polyphemus, and asks for help, Polyphemus tells the other Cyclopes that "Nobody" is hurting him. This cunning plan helps Odysseus escape by making the other Cyclopes believe Polyphemus is not in danger.
