Additional info:
Ancient Greek mythology tells us that Penelope's husband Odysseus, King of Ithaca, goes off to fight in the 10 year Trojan War.
While most survivors return relatively soon, it takes Odysseus another ten years to return home, and in this time the suitors court Penelope, whom they believe (or hope) has become a widow.
Once Odysseus returns home, his son Telemachus tells him that there are 108 suitors.
Under the pretext of courting Penelope, the suitors proceed to spend their days at Odysseus' house, feasting on the livestock.
Odysseus meets with Penelope in secret where she organizes a contest where the person who can string Odysseus' bow will become his successor.
In disguise Odysseus wins the contest, sheds his disguise and kills all of the suitors with the help of Telemachus and Philoeteus.
