In ancient Greek religion and mythology, Pan (/pæn/; Ancient Greek: Πάν, romanized: Pán) is the god of the wild, shepherds and flocks, nature of mountain wilds, rustic music and impromptus, and companion of the nymphs. He has the hindquarters, legs, and horns of a goat, in the same manner as a faun and a satyr.

Is Pan a faun or a satyr?

Faunus / Pan had a goat tail matching the rest of his lower body. Faunus / Pan is usually depicted with goat legs (Fig. 9), but depictions of him with human legs exist. Satyrs are never depicted with goat legs, and this is possibly the most important distinction between fauns and satyrs.

Who was the ugliest god?

Facts about Hephaestus

Hephaestus was the only ugly god among perfectly beautiful immortals. Hephaestus was born deformed and was cast out of heaven by one or both of his parents when they noticed that he was imperfect. He was the workman of the immortals: he made their dwellings, furnishings, and weapons.
