Syrinx is an important figure in the myth of the pan flute. According to this myth, Syrinx was loved by the god Pan. At one point, Syrinx was chased by an excited Pan. Syrinx started running, but was stranded near the river Ladon, which she could not pass. In desperation, she prayed, which was answered and resulted in Syrinx turning into reeds just in time. Pan had no choice but to give up hope and blew at the reeds in frustration. He discovered that this gave a certain tone and cut the reed to make a pan flute. The ancient Greeks called this pan flute Syrinx.
