Bronze Sculpture of The Trojan Hero Hector

Hektor (or Hector) was the son of Priam and Hekabe and was the older brother of Paris and Kassandra. He was a soldier in the Trojan War who met his end at the hands of Akhilles as revenge for killing Patroklos.

Hector was slain by Akhilles and Akhilles attached him to a chariot and was dragged around the walls of Troy three times. His corpse was also dragged around Patroklos's grave several times. His body would've been unrecognizable, but Aphrodite had used a special potion to restore it to its former beauty.
