Conclusion: The earliest are the Ga-hon-ga, they are guardians of the stream, live in rock caves near rivers, and though small in size are possessed of gigantic strength. The remaining two occur at 25%, the myth around them developing into a generic concept.

Linguistic Archaeology: Global Linguistic Map (November 2022)
I think that should do it. You get to a point where you need to walk away from it. At least for the forseeable future.
I put what I do in the public domain, so maybe someone will make better use of it in my life time.
The PDF is just over 10 Megabytes so it cant be emailed anymore. And cover art is a suitable meme.
Basic Expert: other Races?
Faun wasn't even a monster in D&D Basic/Expert.
The idea of half-race classes creeping into D&D Basic/Expert might have opened it up long before the exotic character races of modern editions,
Update: found a article in Dragon Magazine issue 109 by Frank Mentzer. As a Female born of Satyr she qualifies as a Dryad, I guess she can adventure until her fighter class reaches Fighter L4 & 2HD? Lets say Dryad are HD 1d4 fighters like Halflings. That means 2d8HD, and 4th level fighter Saving throws is viable.
Give her the Charm Person ability (as M-U spell) and maybe her companions are a little more enticed than usual. At 4th level the Dryad must merge with a Tree, but until then she is free to adventure...
