Answer and Explanation:
The representation and characterization of Polyphemus features a monster that lives in caves. This was very common in Greek culture, to believe that monstrous and dangerous creatures were hidden in antiquity, in the seas and in caves, as they would be fought if they lived in the midst of civilization. As a monstrous Greek creature, Polyphemus is ferocious, bloodthirsty and strong, acting violently against human beings.
He is also unintelligent, easily falling into Odysseus' trap.
This shows that the Greek people, even fearing and recognizing their disadvantages in relation to monsters, believed that wisdom had reasoning as an advantage that would allow them to survive.
