Just found out that the personification of justice as a blindfolded woman with a scales and a sword is literally the Ancient Greek goddess Themis.

It's not some popular modern poetic concept, it's literally, exactly Themis. That's how she was depicted. She was the goddess of justice.

That's absolutely bananas to me. Those statues outside law courts are, like, as if we has statues of Anubis outside graveyards, or Thoth outside libraries.
