is it cork or...quork?

Achilles was a skilled water skier growing up as a young Mycenaean, at an early age he was actually able to barefoot waterski with the power of his pet dolphin pert.

Mycenaeans aren't supposed to be fucking blonde. stupid hollywood

Yeah what the fuck is that? Hollywood always fucks up there history. The lionsgate should have been on the outside of the building not the inside

Yeah, and Achilles was gay with his cousin.

What's this?


Why it's a pirate thread off the port bow!

Well, there is actually more evidence to support Achilles being blonde rather than dark haired. In the Iliad, Achilles' hair is described as golden/blonde or fair. Furthermore, many gods and goddesses, especially Demeter and Aphrodite, were depicted as having blonde/golden hair and blue/bright eyes; they were two characteristics that usually accompanied each other. Achilles is described as being bright-eyed in The Iliad, so it's safe to assume he probably had blonde/golden hair. Now, because Aphrodite was blonde and the goddess of love of beauty, blonde/golden hair was considered beautiful and a blessing from the gods, Greeks used saffron and mud to dye their hair a lighter colour. Because Achilles was both beautiful and divine, golden/blonde hair is probably the fairest representation of him.
