Icarius, wanting a son and not a daughter, threw Penelope into the ocean at a young age, but she was saved by ducks. The fact that she was saved by ducks caused Icarius to save her and name her Penelope, a word for duck. She is the faithful wife of Odysseus, and Telemachus is their son. While Odysseus leaves Ithaca, he gains many suitors from Ithaca and nearby islands. ]]> 2016-12-08 17:28:42 UTC https://padlet.com/sphan106/seanisthebest/wish/142622622 amchau100 https://padlet.com/sphan106/seanisthebest/wish/142703495 Penelope is the wife to the king of Ithaca, Odysseus. She is faithful to her husband and makes sure that he is faithful to her in return. When Odysseus leaves to go to Ithaca, Penelope stays behind, but she still shows how she is trustworthy. During the absence of Odysseus, she gains many suitors, but being a faithful wife, she delays for three years by weaving for Odysseus's father and then unraveling what she has woven. As one of Penelope's servant later on reveals her plan, she is now forced to choose another husband. However, when Penelope has to make a challenge to see who will by her future husband, she knows that only Odysseus can string the bow and shoot the arrow. ]]> 2016-12-08 23:49:56 UTC https://padlet.com/sphan106/seanisthebest/wish/142703495 amchau100 https://padlet.com/sphan106/seanisthebest/wish/142703794 First of all, Penelope was Odysseus's wife, which was part of the reason he decided to go home in the first place. In the story, she is a loyal, intelligent, and beautiful wife, which is every man's dream. Daughter of the king of Sparta, she was the queen and Odysseus would've been king if he were there. Her intelligence and loyalty kept men from being able to persuade her into marrying them instead. She actually loved Odysseus and waited years for him to return home, which angered other men that wooed her. ]]> 2016-12-08 23:54:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sphan106/seanisthebest/wish/142703794 amchau100 https://padlet.com/sphan106/seanisthebest/wish/142705115 Daughter of Icarius of Sparta, Queen of Sparta, and Wife of Odysseus
