Modern Description: the outline of Pan on the rock face to the right of Ag. Fotini church on the S bank of the Ilissos can only be seen in favorable light (in 1980 it was visible, in 2018 maybe not)
[Judith Binder: Pan: Pan playing syrinx outlined on a rock-cut wall, part of a structure with two rock-cut walls meeting at a right angle, one partly demolished by dynamiting [halted by Eleftheria Serbeti in 1968], beside Haghia Photini (Chr.Mon.
