Pan Greek man-goat God Playing Flute Statue Sculpture
Item No. 5065
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 hymn 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").
