Nestor is telling his sons to make a sacrifice to the goddess Athena. Nestor's sacrifice to Athena includes aspects taken from the sacrifices done in the Greek religion. He has the cow's horns decorated in gold which is often done, as well as bring a basket of barley to where the victim would be killed. The way Nestor had the cow sacrificed also matched the way sacrifices are killed in the Greek religion. “So one day I withdrew to the interior to pray the gods in solitude, for hope that one might show me some way of salvation.” Odysseus is explaining his journey of trying to get back to Ithaka and about his prayers to the gods.

He, like said before, is doing something that is common in the Greek religion. This is another example of what people prayed in hopes that the gods would help them out. 'Come, we'll cut out the noblest of these cattle for sacrifice to the gods who own the sky.we'll build a costly temple and adorn it with every beauty for the Lord of High Noon.' Food was sacrificed to appease the gods, and Odysseus' men wanted to ensure that Helios (the Lord of High Noon) wouldn't be mad at them. Temples were built to honor gods.

The temple for Helios was meant to honor him. 'there stood an altar stone to the cool nymphs, where all men going by laid offerings.' The altar is there to honor the nymphs because the Greeks wanted to honor all the gods and spirits. (Nymphs are spirits of nature) Offerings are given because, as stated before, they appease the nymphs as well as the gods.
