The name and design of the award is based on the legend of Jason and the Argonauts, who fled with the Golden Fleece across the Black Sea and up the Danube in an attempt to escape King Aietes. Thus Jason crossed the territory of today's Slovenia and, according to myth, established the town of Ljubljana en route.
