The Trojan War
The Trojan War was a protracted conflict between the Greeks and the city of Troy. Achilles, one of the most famous Greek heroes, played a crucial role in this war. He was known for his unparalleled bravery and strength, but also for his anger and temper.
The goddess Nike, also called Victoria in Roman mythology, was the goddess of victory and success. In many depictions she is depicted as a winged figure that brings victory.
During the Trojan War, Achilles killed the Trojan prince Hector, one of Troy's bravest warriors. After this victory, Achilles took trophies from the battle, including the famous helmet of Hector, which he wore as a symbol of his victory.
The myth of Nike and Achilles shows the close connection between the goddess of victory and the hero Achilles. Nike is often portrayed as the one who promoted Achilles' victory and glory, helping him succeed in battle.
