Pandura

The pandura is an ancient Greek string instrument from the Mediterranean basin. Lutes have been present in ancient Greece since the third century B.C.. They were also present in Mesopotamia since the Akkadian era, or the third millennium BCE. The ancient Greek pandoura was a medium or long-necked lute with a small resonating chamber. It commonly had three strings: such an instrument was also known as the trichordon. Its descendants still survive as the Greek tambouras and bouzouki, the North African kuitra, the Eastern Mediterranean saz and the Balkan tamburica. Renato Meucci suggests that the some Italian Renaissance descendants of Pandura type were called chitarra italiana, mandore or mandola. In the 18th century the pandurina was often referred to as mandolino napoletano.
