satyr
In Greek mythology, a lustful, drunken woodland creature, half man and half beast, characterized by pointed ears, two horns on the forehead, and a tail. Satyrs attended the god of wine, Dionysus. They represented the vital powers of nature.
Roman writers confused the satyr with their goatâfooted Italian Faunus.
Older satyrs were named Sileni after Silenus, the lecherous old companion of Dionysus; the younger creatures were referred to as Satyrisci.
Christian art used them as images of the devils.
