Page "Paris (mythology)" Paragraph 7

In celebration of the marriage of Peleus and Thetis, Lord Zeus, father of the Greek pantheon, hosted a banquet on Mount Olympus.

Every deity and demi-god had been invited, except Eris, the goddess of strife ( no one wanted a troublemaker at a wedding ).

For revenge, Eris threw the golden Apple of Discord inscribed with the word " Kallisti " — " For the fairest " — into the party, provoking a squabble among the attendant goddesses over for whom it had been meant.
