	Parada says, “In one occasion, Hector and the Achaean champion Ajax fought in a single combat that was without issue because the heralds parted them as the night was coming. In recognition of their courage the contenders exchanged gifts. But, as it is said, the gifts of enemies bring no good, for Ajax gave Hector the belt by which he was later dragged by Achilles, and Hector gave Ajax the sword with which he killed himself”.

	Achilles was mad with Agamemnon and prayed that the Achaeans would suffer. Thetis made the request to Zeus and he granted several victories for the Trojans. Hector killed Achilles’ best friend Patroclus and in doing so, enraged Achilles. The Achaeans retrieved the body of Patrolcus, but not the armor, which was Achilles’ armor. Hector’s parents tried to talk him out of facing Achilles, but Hector did not listen. Hector wore the armor of Achilles, he became afraid when he saw Achilles coming, and he ran from Achilles. Athena disguised herself as Deiphobus, one of Hector’s brothers. She convinced Hector to stand up to Achilles and he met his fate. Achilles killed Hector and avenged Patroclus’ death. Achilles tied Hector by his tendons and dragged him face down around the city to further shame Hector. (The Norton Anthologies, ~~<u>~~The Iliad~~</u>~~. 186). “Some modern scholars have even suggested that he, not Achilles, is the true hero of ~~the <u>~~Iliad~~</u>~~”.

	Before Priam came to meet with Achilles, Thetis told Achilles he must give back the body per Zeus’ request. Achilles gave Hector to Priam and the proper burial was given. The war was won by the Achaeans, Astyanax was thrown to his death, and Andromache was carried away by the Achaeans as chattel.
