2464	ENT_ITA_SILVANUS	aligned_with	ENT_PAN	medium	Silvanus and Pan share the structural function of deity of uncultivated, boundary wildlands, and both are associated with shepherds and the rustic world beyond the city. Virgil's Eclogues place them in equivalent roles: "Silvanus and Pan and the sisterhood of Naiads" (Ecl. 10.24-26). Ancient writers sometimes grouped them together as rural deities. However, unlike Faunus/Pan, the identification of Silvanus with Pan is less systematic — Silvanus has a distinctly Italic character (boundary guardian, property deity) that Pan lacks. Confidence medium: structural parallel and Virgilian grouping, not explicit identification.	SRC_VIRGIL_AENEID	reviewed	PER_ITA_ARCHAIC
