Some of the many strongest arguments for Kefalonia, and especially Paliki, as Homeric Ithaca. 4. ATHERAS, the beach where the Phaeacians brought Odysseus. Since we are talking about Palliki, at the end of 15th rhapsody we encounter again the best argument for the landing beach in Ithaca, from Athera...

The monolith of Araklis, outside the village of Anogi, Ithaca.

The name Ithaca comes from the Homeric word 'ἰθὺς', which means straight. This implies that we should assume that the coasts of Ithaca should consist of straight shorelines. The only reason the Paliki peninsula of Kefalonia was called ITHACA in Homeric times is this alignment, because the word ITHYS means straight. The photos are from Lepeda and Longo near LIXOURI. Sometimes the mind turns back to the student years in Thessaloniki……Back then, as a Geologist, I accidentally found near...

SOME OF THE MANY STRONGEST ARGUMENTS FOR KEFALONIA, AND ESPECIALLY PALIKI, AS HOMERIC ITHCA 2. THE GODDESS ATHENA IN THE ODYSSEY Academy of Athens, the statue of Athena α.

Odysseus speaks to old Laertes. Just yesterday, he has killed the suitors and taken refuge in the estate of the former king. Already, the suitors' parents have held a meeting and are heading against them to take revenge. Athena intervenes and transforms Laertes into a young and capable man. Those around him are impressed: … «Father, surely some god among the immortals made you in appearance so noble in body for them to see you». To this, Laertes responded with emotion: «May Zeus, my...

… Ithaca belongs to a large geographical unit from which a wandering beggar can arrive both by ship and by land on FOOT. This is the main argument for Lefkada and it completely refutes the theories of Thiaki and the Paxoi. The theories of Poros and Assos simply survive, while the only theory that can even challenge Lefkada 'within its own home,' within its own argument, is Paliki! And the reason is the following:Crossing to Ithaca on foot is mentioned as something difficult, both in...
