Achilles' big disagreement is with King Agamemnon.
He had a disagreement with Agamemnon over a girl.
The disagreement shows the value of Honor to the ancient Greeks. Agamemnon took away Briseis, Achilles's prize. A prize is given for bravery in battle and taking it away is like taking away a medal of honor. Achilles became very mad because he felt as if his honor was diminished.
Achilles was killed by Paris during the Trojan War. Paris was Helen of Troy's kidnapper whom was the woman who caused the Trojan War. Paris was described as to being a cowardly individual whom had no intentions of fighting and was why he used his arrows. He shot Achilles in the heel, that's where Achilles heel' came from. Some say that Apollo, whom was on the Trojan's side, assisted in directing the arrow. Paris probably most likely killed Achilles because Achilles was the Achaean's (Greeks) best fighter and to avenge his brother, Hector's, death.
Patroklus / Patroclus is Achilles' close friend whom Hector kills in battle near the crisis of the Iliad.
The person that decided for Achilles to come back, was a old,wise men Nestor.

On his fathers side Heracles, while on his mothers side Achilles. Achilles is a dude and so is heracles
Patroklus / Patroclus is Achilles' close friend whom Hector kills in battle near the crisis of the Iliad.
it means that although Achilles is not present, his presence is still felt through his influence on those who are. Achilles makes this statement to Hector after mortally wounding him to avenge his friend, Patroclus, whom Hector had killed while Patroclus wore Achilles armor. Achilles was not present in battle when Hector killed his friend, yet Achilles influenced the battle and Hector should have known that Achilles would avenge the act and kill Hector. Save
The Achilles TENDON is on the back of your ankle and runs up to your calf muscle. It depends on the height of the person as to the length. Achilles' heel was probably the same size as everyone else's.
Odysseus was charged by Agamemnon to convince Achilles to go to war. Achilles impersonated a woman at the behest of his mother, to whom it had been prophesied that Achilles would either live a long, uneventful life or a short, glorious one. Odysseus presented the women among whom Achilles was hid with a bounty of gifts, among which where placed a few weapons. After observing one of the women taking an unusual interest in the weapons, Odysseus later sounded a battle horn, fooling Achilles into clutching for a weapon and revealing him to be the heroic soldier.
Agamemnon took the Trojan woman, Briseis, whom Achilles had captured, taken as his slave, and fallen in love with because an oracle had ordered him (Agamemnon) to give up his own woman, Chryseis.
The person that decided for Achilles to come back, was a old,wise men Nestor.
Something more than just a minor disagreement. A BIG problem.
Deidamia, daughter of king Lycomedes of Scyros, discovered Achilles in his youth when he was disguised as a girl in her father's court. She had the only child of the great hero, a son Neoptolemus by Achilles. Deidamia became the wife of Helenus, the Trojan seer, son of King Priam, whom Neoptolemus had brought as a prisoner. It was said he had married her before he left.Briseis was concubine of Achilles. He referred to her as his bride and wife often; and when she was taken by Agamemnon because he had had to give up his concubine Chryseis he withdrew from the war with disastrous results for his own side. He did not again join the war until after the death of his friend Patroclus. She is later returned to Achilles, and mourns with him the death of Patroclus and remains with him until his death, and mourned him and made his body ready for the afterlife.Diomede was a girl, whom Achilles took up with after Briseis was taken.Polyxena a daughter of Prime and Hecuba had been slain at Achilles' tomb by Neoptolemus (his son) and so called "beloved of Achilles".Evan after death Achilles married either Iphigenia or Helen in the White Isle, or else he married Medea in the Islands of the Blest.
