The story
A Titaness who stands for divine law, custom and what is right. She was Zeus‘s second wife and gave him the Seasons and, in one version, the Fates. Before Apollo, she held the oracle at Delphi.
How it ends
She sits beside Zeus, advising him, and calls the gods to assembly.
Still with us today
Statues of Justice holding scales outside law courts, including the Old Bailey in London, descend from her and the Roman goddess Justitia.
