Kallisti
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Kallisti is a word from the Greek language. It may be translated as, "for the most beautiful one", or "to the prettiest one".

In Greek mythology, this word was inscribed on the Golden Apple of Discord by Eris, and rolled into a wedding celebration where the goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite began to quarrel as to who was the intended recipient. Paris, a guest, was chosen to mediate, and gave the Apple to Aphrodite. This choice was recounted as the legendary start of the Trojan War.

The word "Kallisti", written on a golden apple, is a principle symbol of Discordianism.
