Pan, who is a shepherd god, is usually described as a son of Hermes and Apollo, both originally pastorla divinities, and some unspecified nymph.
Shepherds pray toPan to protect their flocks.
But that's a whole other story. Back to Pan, who invented his own musical instrument, known as the Pan pipies. There was a nymphs named Synrinx, devoted to the worship of the virgin goddess Artemis. And so she habitually rejected the sexual advances ot satyrs and other woodland creatures. Pan caught sight of her and instantly fell in love.
