Named for the goddess of all evil, infatuation, and mischief. Ate (or Eris) was a daughter of Zeus {see planet (5731)}. Not invited to the marriage of Peleus and Thetis {see planet (17)}, she rolled the Golden Apple that led to the Judgement of Paris {see planet (3317)}, a main cause for the Trojan War. Hesiod says she was a daughter of Eris. (Z 35)
