Page "Nemesis (mythology)" Paragraph 10

In the Greek tragedies Nemesis appears chiefly as the avenger of crime and the punisher of hubris, and as such is akin to Atë and the Erinyes.

She was sometimes called " Adrasteia ", probably meaning " one from whom there is no escape "; her epithet Erinys (" implacable ") is specially applied to Demeter and the Phrygian mother goddess, Cybele.
