Explanation:
The common archetype from The Odyssey and The Wizard of Oz is that the protagonist or main character has a lot of adventures on their quest to get home.
In the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy is taken to a fantasy land where she meets the Which of the North. She asks how she can get home and is told that the Wizard of Oz in Emerald City could help her.
On her way, she meets different characters and when they arrive they are told that the Witch of the West must be killed in order for their wishes to be granted. On their way, they are faced by the minions of the witch who knows they are coming. Eventually, she makes it home.
In The Odyssey, a warrior is stranded on his way home and meets with a lot of dangers and loss of his men and ships but eventually with the help of the gods, he makes it home to Ithaca.
