The most famous of the Greek heroes, great-grandson of Jupiter, grandson of Eanor, son of Peleus. According to the poets after the Iliad, Thetis anointed her son with ambrosia, and then held him over the fire, although it is also famous that she dipped him in the Styx to make him invulnerable. Achilles, the personification of the Greek type, was depicted as a young man with a slender figure, Herculean forms, strong, agile, with frizzy hair and a beautiful face, and is confused with the personification of Zeus because of his resemblance to him.
