TROJAN WAR
The Goddesses Set the Trojan War in
Motion
According to ancient, non-eye-witness
reports, a conflict among the goddesses
started the Trojan War. This conflict led
to the famous story of Paris (known as
"The Judgment of Paris") awarding a
golden apple to the goddess Aphrodite.
In return for Paris' judgment, Aphrodite
promised Paris the most beautiful
woman in the world, Helen. This world-
class Greek beauty is known as "Helen
of Troy" and called "the face that
launched a thousand ships". Perhaps it
didn't matter to the gods -- especially
the goddess of love -- whether Helen
was already taken, but for mere mortals
it did matter, and, unfortunately, Helen
was already married. She was the wife
of King Menelaus of Sparta.

him and his brother, and sail against the
Asian city-state of Troy to win back
Helen.

• Andromache:

prince Hector and mother of their son, Astyanax.

Neoptolemus, son of Achilles, to whom she bore

•Helen of Troy:
Helen was the daughter of Leda and Zeus, sister
of Clytemnestra, Castor and Pollux (the
Dioscuri), and wife of Menelaus. Helen's beauty
was so overwhelming that Theseus and Paris
abducted her and the Trojan War was fought to
bring her back home.
