Hector killed many enemies during the Trojan War. Patroclus, Achilles’ best friend, was killed by Hector. Achilles avenged that death by killing Hector. Hector was dragged around Patroclus’ grave three times. Priam came to Achilles’ camp and begged him for his son's body. Achilles gave him Hector and Hector was brought back to Troy for a Ceremony of Death. |
