Wait, wait, you mean accurate to the source material or historically accurate?
Because it was never real. Discussing the historical accuracy of the Odyssey is like discussing the historical accuracy of ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’.
Yeah, the visual representation of the cyclops was nothing like what it was in real life, for example, and everyone knows the real siren’s song is Fetty Wap
