1. RE: Satyrs and Fauns?

If you mean real-real, then its doubtful. If you mean mythologically-real, then of course.There are generally two competing theories about the differences between satyrs and fauns: 1) The faun has goats feet whilst a satyr has human feet. 2) (The one I'd back) The faun is a human/deer, the satyr is a human/goat. 2 out of 5 found this valuable.

I liked the faun in Pan's Labyrinth. So different to the usual portrayal.

Answer 1. gives the basics. Satyrs were from Greek . Some pottery depicts them with human feet. There are references to the deer legs. Fauns are the Roman version and I belief were always described with the lower body of a goat.

What are you all talkin about!?! NO! The Satyrs and goat man are the same exact thing, but they have different names. The greeks believed in them first, then the Romans started using the Greek Gods and myths. They look like how this described them. Top half was man, bottom was goat. And I'm pretty sure they had the horns. The Satyrs use to steal woman, loved drinking, and were evil. That's not how I like to imagin them though. =^_^=

I've only heard the term 'Goatman' used in cryptozoology for the Maryland Goatman - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goatman_(Maryland)Satyrs are usually referred to as just satyrs. Do you find this valuable? |

Satyrs are the Greek varient, and Fauns are the Roman varient, In the Greek varient, they are supposed to be kind, generous and intelligent In the Roman varient, they are mischeivious, two-faced and greedy Hope this helps :-) Do you find this valuable? |
