River into which the infant Achilles was dipped (4)

I believe the answer is:

styx

(Other definitions for styx that I've seen before include "River of hell" , "'River of Hate' in Hades" , "One of the rivers of Hades" , "Underground river" , "River surrounding Hades" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
