The Myth of Pan
Pan was the god of shepherds and flocks, the son of Hermes
and a nymph. Pan was born with the legs and horns of a
goat, which caused his own mother to spurn him. Nor was
the adult god more popular with the nymphs. Echo ran away
from him and lost her voice as a consequence, being
condemned only to repeat the words of others. Another
fleeing nymph was transformed into a reed, which inspired
Pan to invent the shepherd's pipe of bound reeds of varying
lengths. Pan was considered to be the cause of the sudden
fear that sometimes comes for no reason, especially in
lonely places. That's why it's called "panic".
