As mentioned in the guitar article, kithara doesn't come from guitar, hence the edit.
[edit] Number of strings
The article should state how many strings it has. Badagnani (talk) 05:38, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
[edit] References and spelling
So wikipedia decides to go against the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Louvre, and all other major art museums in its spelling of Kithara? Of course, we eventually get to this article - but I'm guessing the typical user types Kithara first. There are no phonetic rules for Wikipedia spelling, that I know of - it's true that "Cynic" starts with the same Greek letter - but it was pronounced hard K. Kinokos. Kithara. Maybe the page would get more citations if it were easier to find.Levalley (talk) 00:50, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
Whoever wrote definitively that Kithara and Guitar are unrelated terms doesn't know their linguistics. I'm going to put this page, therefore, on the anthropology watchlist, hoping to attract an Indo-Europeanist or an etymologist - or an archaeologist. I have the citations myself, somewhere, but whoever insisted that kithara and guitar are not related needed a citation. IOW, an expert in anthropological linguistics should either edit - or someone should find citations. If I come across them, I'll edit the article.Levalley (talk) 00:55, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Two-Stringed Lyre?
This article makes reference to a two-stringed lyre. This is not mentioned in the Lyre article. Kortoso (talk) 22:40, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
