In Greek mythology, the Horses of Achilles are a pair of immortal horses which were given to Peleus by Poseidon as a gift when he married Thetis. These horses eventually drew the chariot of Achilles during the Trojan War. These horses were born to Zephyrus and Podarge, and they are named Balius (Greek: Βαλιος, Balios, “piebald”) and Xanthus (Greek: Ξανθος, Xanthos, “bayard”).
