In Greek mythology, Adicia or Adikia () was the goddess and personification of injustice and wrong-doing.

== Representation == An image of Dike, the goddess of justice, overcoming Adikia appears in two archaic vase paintings. The scene was also shown on the chest of Cypselus, in which Adikia was portrayed as a hideous, barbaric woman covered in tattoos being dragged by Dike with one hand, while in the other she held a staff which she beat her with or she is depicted being throttled by Dike.
