Although Homer’s <i>Odyssey</i> is not a scientific or historical work, it reveals certain elements of Meteorology. Weather phenomena during Ulysses’ 10-year return journey reflect empirical observations from the Bronze Age up to the post-Mycenaean era, or even the early Geometric times, probably localized across the Mediterranean Sea. Seeking descriptive characteristics or other features in the <i>Odyssey</i>’s narration, this study is an attempt to build up a scientific approach in several items, e.g., wind fields considering related tests for comparison.
