His mother was a goddess. He was baptized in the fountain of youth being held by his ankles, which is why it was his only weak spot. Yes, he was a Demi-god
hes was the son of Thetis & Peleus. His mother was a nymph. When he was born she wished to make him immortal by bathing him in the Styx. Instead he gained invulnerability (which is why he was an exceptional fighter and rendered him untouchable). His heel was his only weak spot
First slide: WRONG. Achilles was not the child of Zeus. Also, Achilles died before the plan of the Trojan Horse. Stop watching 'Troy' and start reading the texts of Homer and Hesiod - this misinformation is destructive to the legend of a great warrior.
Achilles never died. "The winner writes history". They had the lil bro avenge the big bro LOL FOH. Achilles never died. All part of the Trojan horse. It's all so he doesn't look too perfect.
Achilles is the son of Peleus (grandson of Zeus) and Thetis (sea goddess/sea nymph). Zeus and Poseidon both wanted to have Thetis, but heard of the prophesy the the son of Thetis would be greater than his father. So they decided to marry her to a great hero. Achilles is the only child to survive. Therefore Achilles is a favorite of Zeus, and some myths say he is the son of Zeus, but most, including the Iliad, say it's Peleus and that he is a descendent of Zeus.
What they leave out...Helen, before she was married, was courted by all the Greek princes accept for Achilles.Trying to impress her, Odysseus suggested that they all pledge to come to her aid should she ever need it
I don’t think so I think he died after that, I googled it and it said that he died near the end of the war, so I think Achilles died after the Trojan horse, also it’s mentioned that Achilles funeral is not mentioned in the Iliad but In the Odyssey. Edit: I was wrong, Achilles died before the horse outside Troy.
for the simple story achilis is a man fight good and die with honor and the folish people make him like a god pffff wake up world there is one god for this world and he never die . not human
This is when Greek mythology was huge. Honestly I jus like hearing about these stories. Not saying I believe in it but come on u can't say some stories wasn't good
That's wrong.İlliad Tale says,Achilles hasn't been killed by paris like in the movie.He's been killed by an Apollon's Archer.And the arrow which that penetrates his heel (his only weak point),pointed in-air by Apollon.That's the true tale.
Achilles wasn't son of Zeus. Zeus was told that Thetis Son aka Achilles would overthrow Zeus from the throne, that's why he got Thetis to marry Peleus. btw Achilles was dead before the Trojan horse was made, he was not inside the horse or city.
No I don’t believe so, Achilles died near the end of the Trojan war during the sacking of Troy he was inside the horse in the city (I think). Edit:he was right forget what I said he was killed before the Trojan horse
Sorry, Achilles was the son of Peleus, not Zeus. Thetis was told that if she married an immortal that the offspring would have the power to overthrow Zeus. So Zeus married her off to Peleus. So geeesh, a huge error in the first minute. Bummer.
all of you are wrong, Achillies is the 7th demi god son of Zeus, Peleus is the king of the Myrmidons who is the mortal adopted father of Achillies, Also known for outliving his son Achillies, and yes Achillies does die before the Trojan Horse, but the factor still remains, Achillies is a Demi-God born from Zeus and the sea nymph
Same as what Mary May said. Zeus wed Thetis off to Myrmidons after being warned of a prophecy stating that the child of Thetis would grow to be greater than the father. Both of them had a child who was Achilles. He is a demi-got because Thetis, a sea nymph, is also considered a sea goddess. Then again, many stories about Achilles exist and some things have been added or changed
Litt Ciara I’m gonna do it next week and that’s why I’m trying to search for information, if you can , can you please tell me some good tips because I really need help. At my school we’re having a project on making a play of famous myths and fables and we’re doing it in groups so if you can help that would be a great help
Achilies was a god but his mother died when she did a bad thing to let his son go in war then that was A bad thing for achilies he died from a archer named paris he shot him in the heel then he died
+TdeathlyH 93 Such prophetic words... since his name will be mentioned by humankind forever when referring to the part of his body that took the fatal blow.
Incorrect! Achilles was the son of Thetis and Peleus. And Achilles was did in the river of Styx because Thetis knew if she had a son with a mortal, the son would be mortal. So if Achilles was son to Zeus, and Thetis dipped him in the river, nothing would happen since both are immortal. And Zeus and Poseidon wanted to marry Thetis but it was told that she would give birth to a son greater that his father. So they both backed off and married her to Peleus. Ya sorry I wasted your time
The mother didn’t forget to dip his heel in according to myth if you were dipped in the river your body would be indestructible except for one chosen point in the body
wrong! Achilles was dead when the trojan-horse entered troja!!! he died before the greeks have entered troja,for this reason odysseus has invented the trojan-horse!!if achilles were alive it were not necessary!!--read homer and dont believe all szenes from movies!!!but in total a good movie with some incorect historical facts!!!
... "They will be talking about this war for years, soldiers will die but names will forever stand" 🙌.. ACHILLES!!!!
Achilles was not Zeus`s child,He was the son of Peleus
do not worry, the story is horrible anyways, achillies story would literally take 2 years to tell it all
Liberals Suck would u wanna fight Achilles . btw what do u say about link
Offical KingCk9 Kingdom nontheless Achilles was half-god.

Corey Hayes rude
achilies was no son of god he was just a very good warrior and a great fighter
His mother was a goddess. He was baptized in the fountain of youth being held by his ankles, which is why it was his only weak spot.
Yes, he was a Demi-god
hes was the son of Thetis & Peleus. His mother was a nymph. When he was born she wished to make him immortal by bathing him in the Styx. Instead he gained invulnerability (which is why he was an exceptional fighter and rendered him untouchable). His heel was his only weak spot
zombie Achilles was the son of the sea Goddess Thetis, daughter of the Titan Oceanus, she became the wife of Peleus, King of Phthia.
😂
+Jean Williams
Thetis was one of the fifty Nereids, daughters of Nereus, the Old Man of the Sea.
You forgot the part where he was hidden as a maiden underneath a king's nose and was tricked by Odysseus into given away his true identity.

Achilles died before the trojan horse
Ur right then they made the horse and made them think they fleed cause he died.
I don’t think so I think he died after that, I googled it and it said that he died near the end of the war, so I think Achilles died after the Trojan horse, also it’s mentioned that Achilles funeral is not mentioned in the Iliad but In the Odyssey.

Actually,Achilles died before Trojan horse....

Nice way to just push everyone’s idols loges out of the way to make a safe space for your religion

Where did you get the music from
Achilles is the son of Tethis (a goddess) and Peleus (a mortal).
Achilles wasn't son of Zeus. Zeus was told that Thetis Son aka Achilles would overthrow Zeus from the throne, that's why he got Thetis to marry Peleus. btw Achilles was dead before the Trojan horse was made, he was not inside the horse or city.

That is why the Achilles heel is called that
Sorry, Achilles was the son of Peleus, not Zeus. Thetis was told that if she married an immortal that the offspring would have the power to overthrow Zeus. So Zeus married her off to Peleus. So geeesh, a huge error in the first minute. Bummer.

+TdeathlyH 93 but also if he would have not went the girl would have died or Troy would have never fallen. So life was bad either way

Achilles was son of Peleus and thetis.. Not zeus
@vickyw1995 it wasnt..
Off of this video starting with zeus being the father..... Yeah I'm outta here
lol you got it wrong.... stop watching troy
LauraVevo lol could you do better?
Yes, read a book or type Greek mythology into Google.
The Oracle stated that the son of Thetis would be greater than his father! Zeus hand-picked Peleus to be Thetis's husband!
the war with troy was thought to be myth true date unknown. speculations unclear shame
#Phyrra
Wasn't this Greek Mythology??

Achilles was dead when the trojan-horse entered troja!!! he died before the greeks have entered troja,for this reason odysseus has invented the trojan-horse!!if achilles were alive it were not necessary!!--read homer and dont believe all szenes from movies!!!but in total a good movie with some incorect historical facts!!!
