¹ The earliest certain instance of the Panes is Ar., Eccl.1069. The supposed occurrences of the plural in Aeschylus and Sophokles rest on the evidence of scholia which strike me as not only uncertain in text but muddled and suspect in contents, see the notes respectively of Nauck (ed. 2) and Jebb-Pearson on Aesch.fgt.35 and Soph.fgt.136. Especially do I doubt the statement of schol.ps.-Eur., Rhes.36 that Aesch. distinguished two Pans, one the son of Kronos and one of Zeus. In itself the plurality is perfectly credible. Cf. Nilsson, GgR i², p. 236.

² See especially Z 311 (Athene rejects the petition of her Trojan priestess Theano), K 295 and many other passages (she at once hears and grants the prayer of Odysseus). For worship of a deity normally hostile who has shown his unfriendliness in the most marked way, see A 450–474 (Apollo graciously accepts the prayer of Chryses on behalf of the Achaians and is pleased with their hymn).

³ Verg., Aen. viii, 351–54.

⁴ Aesch., Eumen., 1 ff.

⁵ This of course does not exclude the possibility that the Achaians brought with them small portable sacred objects. Such things as the famous stone at Delphoi which was later (Hesiod, Theog. 497–500) shown as the identical object which Kronos swallowed by mistake for Zeus may for all we know have been imports of this kind. But being uninscribed and probably shapeless they would easily become unintelligible, retaining only a vague holiness.

⁹ I remain quite unconvinced by the attempts, although they do not lack learning nor ingenuity, to make Janus something else than a door or gate, e.g., to mention the last that I have seen, L. A. MacKay's argumentation that he is a moon-god (U. of Cal. Pubs, in Class. Phil. 15, 4, pp. 157–82).

¹⁸ We now know that at least many of them are pre-Homeric by several centuries; the Linear B tablets give us with more or less certainty Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hermes, Ares (?), Paian, Dionysos, Artemis, Athene, Eleuthia (Eileithyia), the Winds, and sundry less familiar figures.

⁶⁶ From letters, the contents of which Professor Palmer has given me generous permission to use. I would mention that all that is said concerning the Linear B tablets is subject to correction, seeing that not only individual interpretations but the very basis of the decipherment is under criticism, see Beattie, A.
