| | | Pan Statue | A God of shepherds
and flocks, he was
depicted with a reed
pipe, a shepherd's
crook and being half-
man half-goat, with
horns, a goat's beard
and goat legs. He
personifies
humanity's animal
nature. He was a
popular God, though
never part of the
official Olympian
pantheon. Pan has
much in common with
Dionysos in that he
is associated with
wine, sex, and
passion in general. A
Homeric hymm says
that he was the son
of Hermes by a
daughter of Dryops.
Pan's mother was
frightened by her
monstrous offspring,
so Hermes took him to
Olympus. The Gods
were delighted with
the child, especially
Dionysos, and he was
given the name Pan
because he made them
all happy. (In Greek,
Pan means "All").
