Who is Pan from Greek mythology?

Answer 1

There are no dates given for the birth of gods or goddesses in ancient Greek myth.

It can only be assumed to have been sometime after either Hermes (one of Pan's fathers) or after Zeus (it isn't sure who Pan's father was). Aether and Oeneis, or a Nereid, or a son of Uranus and Ge is also claimed as his father and mother.

Answer 2

Pan is the god of the wild. Around 2 thousand years ago, a sailor heard from a cliff, "Tell them all that the great god Pan is dead!" Pan is not dead. Immortal gods cannot die. They can only fade when their power has been destroyed.

Answer 3

I've always been taught that Pan was either primordial, or a son of Kronos, meaning that he was older than the Olympians. He was the god of nature and the fertility of nature, and is closely connected to the Roman god Faunus. It is said that he taught Artemis how to shoot her bow, and taught Apollo how to prophesy.

Answer 4

Pan was the god of shepards and flocks, of mountain wilds, hunting and rustic music.
