His mother dipped him in the River Styx as a child with his heels exposed because that's where she held him
Achilles Heel is an old saying about a guy who is invincible except for his heel. the moral is that everybody has a weakness. Example: The spiders are her Achilles Heel or it means: the only thing that can scare her are spiders .His mother dipped all of Achilles in the river Styx all except his heel. He was invincible everywhere except his heels because of that
It was pure chance - no one knew about Achilles' weak spot except for himself, his mother, and possibly his mentor, Chiron.
The goddess of Achilles is actually the "Mother" of Achilles and the answer is Thetis (The Mother of Achilles)
Hephaestus by the request of Achilles mother, Thetis.

- Achilles was dipped into the water of sytax by his mother, becoming immortal everywhere except for the heel his mother held him by - the water from the sytax didn't touch Achilles' right heel - Achilles was able to run fast enough to catch deer and strong enough to kill lions at age 6 YOUR WELCOME
Thetis (Achilles' mother) dipped Achilles into the River Styx, located in the Underworld
No, Achilles's mother is Thetis, a Nereid or sea nymph.
It is taken from the story 'the Illiad'. The hero Achilles had been dipped in the sacred river by his mother to make invulnerable to weapon attack; all of him got this power except his heel, which she was holding. So an Achilles heel is the weak spot.
Thetis, the mother of Achilles is a sea nymph. That is not technically a goddess but she is immortal.
Achilles had his mother dip him in the River Styx. This made himinvincibleexcept for his heel.

"Thetis' Heel" by Hester Knibbe explores the vulnerability of Achilles through the metaphor of his mother Thetis trying to protect him by dipping him in the River Styx, except for his heel. The poem reflects on the fragility of human strength and the inevitability of vulnerability and mortality, despite efforts to guard against them. Its themes encompass the idea of inherent weaknesses and the uncontrollable aspects of fate.
