Dike
by Jamie Schieken
Dike was the Greek goddess of justice for humanity. Her mother,
Themis, was the goddess of divine justice. Dike was born a human and put on earth to
keep justice. When Zeus, her father, saw that was impossible, he brought her
up to the gods and goddesses to sit on the opposite side of her mother, next
to him. Among the gods and goddesses she was the best of all the virgins.
She then, with all the other gods and goddesses,
watched down on the humans from Mt. Olympus.
