What is the name of Calypso’s island, where Odysseus ends up after Thrinacia?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks for the name of Calypso’s island where Odysseus ends up after Thrinacia.
Option 1: Aeaea. This is the island home of Circe, a goddess who transforms Odysseus’s men into pigs but is not the island Calypso governs.
Option 2: Thrinacia. This is the land of the Sun God's cattle, known for peril to the crew, and it is not Calypso’s isle.
Option 3: Ogygia. This is the correct identification of Calypso’s island, where Odysseus is detained for several years before his eventual departure to return home.
Option 4: Scheria. Also known as the land of the Phaeacians, it is where Odysseus is shipwrecked later in the voyage, not where Calypso resides.
Thus, among the choices, Ogygia uniquely corresponds to Calypso’s island, distinguishing it from Circe’s Aeaea, Thrinacia, and Scheria.
