PANing for greek gold

Pan was the son of Hermes and Penelope (later married to Odysseus) in some myths and the son of Zeus and the nymph Callisto in others. He was the god of flocks and shepherds. He was the Greek god of goatherds and sheep. In appearance he is Human but has goat feet and legs. He is an excellent musician and plays the pan pipe. Who's your favorite Greek god?

    Good post Miles. I have always been curious about pan. I have heard that pan was a terrible person and would steal girls in the woods and the girls would never be seen again. My favorite Greek god is Poseidon I like him because he can control horses and is the god of the sea so he can call make tsunami's any time he wants which I think is awesome
