| Achilles was the son of the mortal Peleus and the nymph Thetis. Thetis tried to make her son immortal by dipping him into the River Styx, while holding him by his ankle. His ankle was therefore the only portion of him capable of sustaining a mortal wound, which he received from a goddess-guided arrow shot by Paris of Troy. |
