Answer:

POLYPHEMOS (Polyphemus) was a man-eating kyklops (cyclops) giant--a monster with a single, orb-shaped eye in the middle of his forehead. Odysseus encountered him on his return from Troy and became trapped in the giant's cave. To escape the hero plied him with wine and as he slept plunged a burning stake into his eye.

Polyphemus was the giant son of the god Poseidon and Thoosa in Greek mythology. He was one of the Cyclopes, having a single eye. ... Polyphemus said that he would eat "No one" last for gratitude, and fell into a deep sleep. Odysseus, having planned this, took a wooden stake and blinded Polyphemus' single eye

Polyphemus is the one-eyed giant son of Poseidon and Thoosa in Greek mythology, one of the Cyclopes described in Homer's Odyssey. His name means "abounding in songs and legends".

Hope that helps!
