In Greek mythology, Dyssebeia (; Ancient Greek: ) was the caco-daimon (evil goddess, spirit) and personification of impiety and ungodliness, as opposed to Eusebeia.

== Family == According to Aeschylus, Dyssebeia was the mother of Hybris."I have a timely word of advice: arrogance (hybris) is truly the child of impiety (dyssebia), but from health of soul comes happiness, dear to all, much prayed for."
