Who wrote the epic poem "The Iliad"?

  1. Homer

  2. Virgil

  3. Sappho

  4. Ovid

The correct answer is: Homer

Homer is the correct answer because he is known as the author of the epic poem "The Iliad". Although all of the other options are notable ancient Greek and Roman poets, none of them are associated with "The Iliad". Virgil wrote the epic "The Aeneid" and Ovid wrote "Metamorphoses", while Sappho is known for her lyric poetry. However, none of these works are considered to be the epic poem "The Iliad". Therefore, the correct answer is Homer.
