Achilles, the most famous of the Greek heroes, great-grandson of Jupiter, grandson of Eanor, of the son of Peleus. According to the post-Iliad poets, Thetis anointed her son with ambrosia, and then held him over fire, although the legend of submerging him in the Styx to make him invulnerable is also famous. Achilles, personification of the Greek type, was represented as a young man with a slender figure, Herculean forms, strong, agile, with curly hair and a beautiful face, he is confused by his resemblance to the personification of Zeus.
