Achilles
The Iliad is an epic poem traditionally attributed to a Greek poet (or sometimes thought to be a group of poets) called Homer. The story covers a short period in the final year of the Trojan War, the ten-year siege of the city of Troy (Ilium) by a coalition of Greek states, but also alludes to many of the Greek legends about the siege both beforehand and in the future, in this way telling a more or less complete tale of the Trojan War as the Greeks saw it.
