{Mythical Creatures- Fauns}

The first fauns were mentioned in Greek and Roman mythology. They lived in forests and in Greek mythology were associated with the Greek God Pan. Pan was the god of fields and forests and was connected to fertility. He is also the creator of the pan flute – an ancient musical instrument made from several pieces of reed or bamboo joined together.

At some point fauns were connected to satyrs, although originally they were different creatures. Satyrs were also companions of Pan and depicted with goat-like ears and tails. They were loves of wine, music, and women. In Roman mythology there was a horned god called Faunus and a goddess (either his sister or wife) called Fauna. The fauns were their followers.  

Fauns in later literature appear as human from head to waist and goat from the waist down, except that they also have goat horns on their heads. Generally they are connected to nature, particularly the forest, and seem to be some kind of spirit that can be helpful to human beings, or a hindrance, unpredictably. Travelers were said to encounter them in lonely places, far from human habitation. Their tales tended to inspire fear.

Last week, my friend and I were exploring her garden when we found a teeny tiny snail shell in the place of an old faerie home we made together. We both agreed that it was a token of thanks!
