Try spelling it "Achilles" and you will find it easier to look up.
Achilles was the name of a hero in ancient Greek mythology. He was made invulnerable by being dipped in the River Styx as a baby. His mother held him by his heel, and that was the only part that did not get dipped. So--that's where his one vulnerable spot was, and that's how he was killed: by an arrow to the heel.
Now guess where the Achilles tendon is and also what the expression "Achilles heel" means.
