the golden apple (which, in most people's opinion, is really the cause of the Trojan War) had inscribed upon it "For the Fairest" (meaning the most beautiful). Paris was given the task of awarding the apple, and he gave it to Aphrodite (or Venus in Roman terms) because she promised to give him the most beautiful woman in the world for his wife if he did.
