Pointy-eared Roman creature of the woods (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

faun

(Other definitions for faun that I've seen before include "This old deity" , "Deity in human shape, with horns and a goat's tail" , "mythical deity" , "Roman goat-like deity" , "Roman deity, in the form of a man with a goat's horns, legs and tail" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
