abstract:In Greek mythology, the Neikea (; singular: Neikos "quarrels") were goddesses of arguments. Hesiod's Theogony identifies them as children of Eris (strife) through parthenogenesis and siblings Lethe ("forgetfulness"), Ponos ("toil"), Limos ("starvation"), the Algea ("pains"), the Hysminai ("fightings"), the Makhai ("battles"), the Phonoi ("murders"), the Androktasiai ("man-slaughters"), the Pseudologoi ("lies"), the Amphilogiai ("disputes"), Dysnomia ("lawlessness"), Atë ("ruin"), and Horkos ("oath").
