Greek hero’s body is as Zeus decapitated (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

odysseus

'greek hero's' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for odysseus that I've seen before include "Homer's wandering hero" , "Homeric hero" , "Greek hero of an epic journey home from Troy" , "Gr. hero, aka Ulysses" , "Homeric wanderer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
