Of deities, the quiet one? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pan

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'of deities' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'the quiet one?' is the wordplay.
'the quiet' becomes 'p' (music symbol for 'piano').
'one?' becomes 'an' (I've seen this in other clues).
'p'+'an'='PAN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pan that I've seen before include "Cooking utensil and Greek god" , "Cooking vessel; forest god" , "Woodland god with merry merry pipes" , "Pot" , "hammer" .)
