Achilles' heel originates from Greek mythology, specifically the legend of Achilles, a hero of the Trojan War. According to the myth, his mother, Thetis, dipped him into the River Styx to make him invulnerable, but she held him by his heel, leaving that part of his body vulnerable. This became a metaphor for a critical vulnerability in an otherwise strong individual, leading to the expression "Achilles' heel" in modern usage.
