Summary/Description: In this year the Roman General Syllas gathered his army to march against Greece. As his army passed the Illyrian Apollonia, a city near today’s city of Dirach in Albania they encountered a strange being. “Near Apollonia and the surrounding area is Nympaio, a sacred place with a steep and narrow valley and rivers of fire. There the soldiers of Syllas caught a “satyr” as the status and paintings depict. The soldiers brought the strange creature in front of Syllas and he questioned the satyr but it could not speak, only moaned and cried like a goat or a horse”.
