"Ay, wicked men never elude pure Themis (Divine Law) : night and day her eyes are on them, and the wide world through above the tribes of men she floats in air, holpen of Zeus, for punishment of sin."
Based on Portrait of a Roman Lady Frederic Leighton
Odysseus and Diomedes on the mission to steal the horses of Rhesus
Chalcidian black-figure neck amphora, atributed to Incription Painter, 540 BC, J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles.
The first photo depicts Odysseus killing a tracian soldier, the second photo is Diomedes killing King Rhesus, the next two photos show the horses of Rhesus, and the last two photos are equestrian decorative motifs.
Aside from how obviously beautiful Amphora is as a whole, I love the fact that the weapons are perched in trees and everyone is on cots, it's so cute, not to mention the clothes they're all wearing.
I also love the horses, they're all gorgeous.

we need to bring back old school tumblr communication and im so serious. sending an ask to a mutual just to say hello. seeing three different asks in your inbox all asking how your dentist appointment went. seeing a post you think one of your mutuals would enjoy and tagging them/sending it to them in the dms. nowadays its just silently liking a post or (if youre feeling extreme) replying under posts. WHAT HAPPENED TO US!! we used to be a proper community!!!! #LetsBringWhimsyBack
I also saw this on Wikipedia yesterday so this is such a funny coincidence, and something that struck me real hard was the fact that it rhymes better, the drop off of digamma really altered the composition of the Epics it seems, plus the diacritics and different pronunciation such as making phi and theta plosives, marks the tone in a different way.
From A Mycenaean Iliad by Rob Wiseman, 2010. (pag, 10)
Thanks so much OP for the link! And the fact that this document goes so indepth is so refreshing and helpful because it is easy to digest and understand while also being open with the changes it does and tries to be as impartial as possible.
I think I have gotten to the point where when people ask about the "best" translations of the Odyssey or the Iliad, my default answer is "multiple."
No one translation is going to magically provide you with everything. One might be more digestible to readers unfamiliar with epic poetry, but will sacrifice accuracy to do so. One might match the poetic feel of the epic while being a more complicated read (as well as potentially leaning more into localization with word choice) One might try to be as accurate as possible and comes across as dry when compared to other translations as a result.
You are not going to find a perfect translation. So, if you are someone who is legitimately interested in delving into the epics, my suggestion would be to read as many translations as you can get a hold of.
And the Perseus digital library with their ancient greek option and english one, it is so goood to get the meaning or multiple meanings some words have which I think is a pity not many people know.
