Where did the name Achilles tendon come from?
Achilles the Greek warrior was shot in the ankle with an arrow and bled to death. The legend was that his goddess mother had, when he was a baby, dipped him in the Styx River to make him immune from death, however by holding him by the back of the ankle, that part was not dipped, and so that was his 'Achilles heel' which crafty Paris took advantage of with his arrow rather than a face to face fight which he was sure to lose.

In Homer's the Illiad, Achilles is a Greek hero who, as a result of being dipped in the river Styx as an infant by his mother, was invincible and could only be harmed by striking his heel. At one point in the Trojan War, Paris lodges an arrow there, and Achilles is slain.

Who was Penthesileia in the Trojan War?
Penthesileia (Πενθεσίλεια in greek) was a great Amazon queen from Thrace (other sources say Pontus of Minor Asia) during the famous Trojan War. Amazons society was exclusively consisted of female but had sexual affair (and getting married) with men only, so they can keep their tribe thriving.In order for an Amazon to get married, she had to prove her warrior skills in fight and had to kill many men in close combat. For that reason, Penthesileia traveled to Troy to assist Priamus army against Achaeans & Danaans (continental Greeks). She killed many men after Hector's death, even the famous Machaon (famous military doctor & surgeon). That was a serious blow to Achaeans. Finally she was defeated and killed by Achilles after a fierce battle. Achilles showed great respect to the woman and handed over her soulless body to Trojans to be buried in proper manner. According to another source (Aithiopis epic poet), Achilles didn't know he killed a woman until he took her helmet off and he instantly fell in love with her. He regreted for not sparing her life and having her as a wife back in Fthia (homeland of Achilles). During the Hellenistic age, many poets were composed to praise the love between Achilles & Penthesileia.
