In Homer´s <em>Odyssey, </em>in the XIV song, we can see Eumaeus is a very loyal person who serves to his lord. He becomes an essential character in the return of Odysseus, whom he welcomes when he arrives dressed as a beggar, then he will help him kill Penelope´s suitors, fighting with Odysseus.

Eumaeus was a kind and humble servant who took care of the herd. He had also become a faithful friend to Odysseus. When his Lord returns from war, disguised as a beggar, he treats him gentleness and provides him with shelter and food. He serves the purpose of showing good character and hospitality.
