Ithacus

In Greek mythology, Ithacus (Ancient Greek: Ἴθακος) may refer to two different characters:

• Ithacus, together with Neritus and Polyctor, made a basin of stone in Ithaca into which a spring ran.
• Ithacus, one of the Suitors of Penelope who came from Same along with other 22 wooers. He, with the other suitors, was shot dead by Odysseus with the assistance of Eumaeus, Philoetius, and Telemachus.
