Satyrs are mythical creatures often depicted as having the upper half of a man and the lower half of a goat. They are known to inhabit the French province of Averoigne[1] and at least some of them are known to be servants of Sheila-Na-Gog, a possible avatar or alias for Shub-Niggurath, though it seems likely these hoofed servants are not true Satyrs but merely the origin for the Satyr legend.[2][3]
