Cyclops
The cyclops are big giant mythical beings that typically don't have many manners when it comes to being polite and or full of manners. Odysseus and his men found this cyclops in a near by land soon after encountering the lotus eaters there they saw these huge beings. Odysseus became very weary about seeing this cyclops and was willing to do whatever he took to get to see him. So he and his men burnt and offering so Odysseus could see the cyclops given his curiosity he refused to leave. -

Cyclops part 2
Odysseus did not want to leave the land until he seen the cyclops so he made his men stay on the land. After later conversing with the cyclops he soon wants to "feast" on Odysseus's men and yet Odysseus still decided to mess and try to work with the cyclops which soon put the all of his crew and his men in danger. This shows that Odysseus has a very stubborn nature given that when his men tried to tell him that it was not a good idea following and waiting on the cyclops he still did so anyway.
