As odysseus recalls his mens pleas to flee the cyclops' cave , he remarks "Ah/how sound that was ! Yet I refused . I wished /to see the caveman , what he had to offer." What qualities of an epic hero does odysseus reveal in this comment ?

I suppose bravery, because he stayed even though he knew the Cyclops might attack him.(Could be stupidity or ignorance, I didn't read the story so I don't know.) Curiosity is also there, assuming he's not stupid, he is curious to see what will happen if he tries. And trust in his abilities.(Again, assuming he's not stupid.) I hope I helped!
