This is only one of the many See also:Greek legends adopted by the See also:Romans for the purpose of connecting places in See also:Italy with others of like-See also:sounding name in See also:Greece
.
To Evander was attributed the introduction of Greek See also:rites and customs into his new See also:country; of See also:writing, See also:music and other arts; of the See also:worship of See also:Pan (called See also:Faunus by the Italians) and the festival of See also:Lupercalia
.
In See also:Virgil he receives See also:Aeneas hospitably, and assists him against Turnus
.
Probably Evander was identical with the See also:god Faunus (the " favourer "), and the See also:tale of his Arcadian origin was due to the See also:desire to establish connexion with Greece; the name of his reputed See also:mother (or wife) Carmenta is genuinely See also:Italian
