Greek coins and Attic vases depict satyrs as being strongly built with flat noses, large pointed ears, long curly hair and full beards (sometimes with ivy wreaths circling their balding heads). Satyrs, whose chief was Silenus, are described as roguish, subversive, dangerous, and greatly dreaded by mortals (Theocritus 13.44). They love music, wine, women and always ready for every physical pleasure.
