      great ram-god of Mendes in Egypt, whom Greek writers constantly
      mistook for a goat-god and identified with Pan. A living ram was
      always revered as an incarnation of the god, and when it died there
      was a great mourning throughout all the land of Mendes. Some stone
      coffins of the sacred animal have been found in the ruins of the
