Misplaced info

"Achiles was described by Leo the Deacon (born ca. 950) not as Hellene, but as Schytian, while according to the Byzantine author John Malalas(c. 491 – 578), his army was made up of a tribe previously known as Myrmidons and later as Bulgars.^[1]^[2]"

Should be in the article but why in the Trojan War section.

Leo the Deacon was a Byzantine historian - the section "Achilles in Roman and medieval literature" may fit well. The sentence about the Myrmidons may fit better in the Trojan War section. --87.227.208.124 (talk) 01:02, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
