This constellation has been recognized since Babylonian times. It is generally depicted as a goat with a fish tail, although the name literally means horned goat. Capricorn is usually associated with the Greek god, Pan. Capricorn is one of the most ancient constellations. According to one myth, this constellation represents the son of Aegipan. He lived with Zeus on the Mountain Ida on Crete. He accompanied Zeus in his war against the Titans. He found the horns of the sea, Conchas, and tought his companions how to use them. When they faced their enemies they blew on these horns instead of using the trumpets, which caused the Titans to flee. To honor him Zeus placed him under the stars in a way that he was part goat and part fish, as a sign that he found the horn of the sea. Capricorn is easiest to see in August. Capricorn is the sign for people born between December 22 and January 19.
