Achilles was the Greek champion and king of the Myrmidons, a warrior tribe known for its efficiency and ruthlessness. Achilles rage over the death of his friend Patroklos caused him to fight so violently that the Trojans, who had been near victory, were pushed back to the walls of their city. There, Achilles called out Hector, who at first stood to fight, then ran at the sight of Achilles. Eventually, Achilles caught Hector, killed him, and dragged his body behind his chariot for 12 days.
Hectors death was a tremendous factor in the defeat of Troy, since without him, the Trojan army was far less effective. He, also, would likely have not fallen for the ploy of the Trojan horse.
