Brief Description: Achilles, the Greek hero, son of Peleus, king of Phthia, and the goddess Thetis, daughter of Oceanus. His legend is among the richest and oldest in Greek mythology. Achilles was brought up under the guidance of Centaur Chiron, who was his teacher. Thetis, to make her son indestructible, bathed him in the Styx, the river of Underworld (Hell), and only the heel, by which Thetis held the boy, was untouched by the miracle waters and remained vulnerable. del sarto
