Arrow - Achilles' Heel as Target

Paris (son of Priam, brother of Hector and abductor of Helen) decides he will kill Achilles to avenge his family and the deaths of his brothers. 

This ancient Greek artifact illustrates the moment when Apollo (a Greek god) directs the arrow (from Paris' bow) toward the only mortal part of Achilles' body:  his heel.
