Achilles' armor was made by the god Hephaestus, the Greek god of fire and craftsmanship. In Homer's "Iliad," Thetis, Achilles' mother, requests Hephaestus to create new armor for her son after his original armor is taken by Hector. Hephaestus forges a magnificent set of armor, including a shield adorned with intricate scenes depicting the world. This armor becomes a symbol of Achilles' might and heroism in battle.

The armor that Hector wore used to belong to Achilles.
