Respuesta :

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

In Book 12 of the epic Odyssey, when Odysseus and his men were stranded on a land where cattles of the Sun-god were kept, Odysseus's crewmen killed some of the cattles of the Sun-god making the god rage in avenge.

So, the wind, which was prevalent for days ceased on the seventh day by Jove. This worked as a temptation for Odysseus and his crewmen to leave the land and sail the ship. So, the Sun-god was waiting for them to sail so that he could destroy their ships.

So, the correct answer is option C.
