Dear Jon,
Joanne, Rosie & I were at York Museum today and I came across two unusual jugs, one has a figure of Pan on it and the other has a being I am not familiar with. At first I thought it was a merman but the tail is more serpent like than fish. Any ideas?
Regards

It was usually depicted as a traditional fish-tailed merman but some depictions of the triton have it with a serpentine tail. I've seen images of the sea-god Glaucus the same way.
