Jouhikko is same instrument than crwth/Chrotta.--SM (talk) 22:26, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Same family/type of instrument, but different musical traditions. MatthewVanitas (talk) 11:00, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removed some text

I removed this text from the article. It seems unrelated to the history of the jouhikko; perhaps if the contributor feels that Byzantine Lyra is a useful related instrument, they could add a reference further down the page where other related instruments are mentioned?

The first recorded reference to a European bowed lyra was in the 9th century by the Persian geographer Ibn Khurradadhbih (d. 911); in his lexicographical discussion of instruments he cited the byzantine lyra (lūrā) as the typical instrument of the Byzantines along with the urghun (organ), shilyani (probably a type of harp or lyre) and the salandj (probably a bagpipe).[1] The lyra spread widely via the Byzantine trade routes that linked the three continents; in the 11th and 12th centuries European writers use the terms fiddle and lira interchangeably when referring to bowed instruments.[2].

Picture size

The image that had the problem

The picture has become corrupted! 92.29.166.55 (talk) 23:59, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed - I purged the page. The reason the image locked weird was that Rotatebot had updated/rotated the image stored at Wikimedia Commons. The article just needed to be purged/rebuilt to set the correct image height and width.
