Achilles stands as the ultimate Greek hero of the Trojan War, a warrior of unmatched skill and fiery temperament whose wrath shaped the fate of Troy. For centuries, the events of Homer’s epic poems were viewed purely as myth, tales of gods and demigods fighting over a heavily fortified city. But what were these myths based on? Well, it turns out there might be some truth to this warrior’s legend in the form of a wandering, troublemaking warrior named Piyamaradu. Uncovered in the diplomatic clay tablets of the ancient Near East, his historical footprint reveals a man whose life closely mirrors the heroic exploits immortalised in epic poetry.
