Alexander the great admired Achilles, the legendary hero of Homer's "Iliad." He saw Achilles as a symbol of martial prowess and heroic ideals, often emulating his bravery and leadership in battle. Alexander even sought to emulate Achilles' legacy by striving for glory and conquest throughout his own campaigns, aiming to achieve a status comparable to that of the great hero.
Alexander and Achilles live in different ages.... -Actually they are a bit. Alexander thought of Achilles as a warrior idol. Nothing more nothing less. Achilles is a sort of mythological hero. We can not say for certain that Achilles really was an existing person. He only appears in a few scripts and also in Homer's "Illiad",where he was the main hero of the Trojan war. His exellency in battle and strategy, in addition to his mythological gift of his armor, made him a great hero to the people's minds. Thus Alexander the Great used to compare himself to Achilles and often trying to reach his military greatfulness. ''' '''
