Telegonus, the son of the sorceress Circe and Odysseus, king of Ithaca, unwittingly killed his father in a dispute over cattle. He then returned to his mother’s island, Aeaea, with Odysseus’s wife, Penelope, and her son Telemachus. Telegonus married Penelope, and the couple were made immortal by Circe, who married Telemachus.
