Roots The Trojan War has its roots in the marriage between Peleus and Thetis,a sea-goddess.Peleus and Thetis had not invited Eris,the goddess of discord, to their marriage so the outraged goddess stormed into the wedding banquet and threw a golden apple onto the table. The apple said, whomever was the fairest. THE GOLDEN APPLE Hera,Athena,and Aphrodite each reached for the apple. Zeus proclaimed that Paris, prince of Troy and thought to be the most beautiful man alive, would act as the judge.Hermes went to Paris, and Paris agreed to act as the judge. Paris chose Aphrodite, and she promised him that Helen, wife of Menelaus, would be his wife. Paris then prepared to set off for Sparta to capture Helen.. In Sparta,Menelaus,husband of Helen, treated Paris as a royal guest. However,when Menelaus left Sparta to go to a funeral, Paris abducted Helen (who perhaps went willingly) and also carried off much of Menelaus wealth.In Troy, Helen and Paris were married. This occurred around 1200 B.C.(Wood,16). Paris carried Helen to Troy, which annoyed Menelaus. Menelaus and Agamemnon decided to start a war, this is the famous Trojan War. In this war, there are two famous heroes Achilles and Hector. THE END OF THE WAR And because of the wooden horse, the Greeks win the war which almost lasted for 10 years.
