Origin of the lyre

The stringed instrument known as the lyre was one of the attributes of the Apollo in ancient times; According to selected myths, the god Hermes, the brother of the guardian of poets and artists, should be regarded as the inventor. In a hymn to Hermes it is reported that as a toddler he stole Apollin’s herd of cows by skilfully mixing up his tracks. To soothe Apollo’s anger after this crime, Hermes gave him a lyre of calf’s intestines and turtle shells.
