Achilles


Innocenzo Fraccaroli scultped his version of the warrior Achilles' unfortunate enc in 1842.
One doesn't usuall think of a heel wound as being fatal, but it makes a good story.

  2. At a time when antibiotics and modern medicines were not around, an infected Achilles heel could well kill you. :(
