About “Capture of Oechalia”
The Capture of Oechalia is a fragmentary Greek epic that was attributed in Antiquity to either Homer or Creophylus of Samos. Some traditions suggest that Homer gave the story to Creophylus as a gesture of gratitude for guest-friendship. Creophylus is said to have written it down. The work remains incomplete and its exact origins are unclear. It is part of a broader tradition of Homeric epics, though it is not part of the canonical Homeric poems. The text survives only in fragments, and its authorship and date of composition are still debated by scholars. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
