The Iliad is a story about war where warriors like Hector, Achilles, and even Paris (best archer on the field) or Diomedes/Ajax shine the best. Odysseus was a king and his strength lies in his cunningness and craftiness, which is best highlighted in the Odyssey where those attributes are to make up ἀρετή. In the Iliad he's vastly eclipsed by warriors as he should be.

Does anyone of you guys have some online resources on Latin? I took two semesters but barely managed to cover the first two declensions and three or four tenses. I want to actually read the Latin theologians and poets. Thanks

You're thinking of agricultural society. Primitive hunter-gatherers were egalitarian, didn't have warriors, classes, and had matriarchal leanings. Even some early Bronze agers preserved this (eg: Minoan civilization).
