In Greek mythology, Achilles (also Akhilleus or Achilleus; Ancient Greek: ἈχιλλεÏÏ‚) was a Greek hero of the Trojan War, the central character and greatest warrior of Homer's Iliad, which takes for its theme the Wrath of Achilles. Achilles also has the attributes of being the most handsome of the heroes assembled against Troy,[Plato, Symposium, 180a] as well as the quickest. Central to his myth is his relationship with Patroclus, characterized in different sources as either deep friendship or passionate love.
