The sambuca (also ''sambute'', ''sambiut'', ''sambue'', ''sambuque'', or ''sambuke''〔Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, published 1913 by C. & G. Merriam Co.〕) was an ancient stringed instrument of Asiatic origin. However, many other instruments have also been called a "sambuca". ==Original== The original sambuca is generally supposed to have been a small triangular harp of shrill tone.,〔 cites: Arist. Quint. Meib. ii. p. 101.〕 probably identical with the Phoenician and the Aramaic ''sabbekā'', the Greek form being or . The sambuca has been compared to the siege engine of the same name by some classical writers; Polybius likens it to a rope ladder; others describe it as boat-shaped. Among the musical instruments known, the Egyptian ''nanga'' best answers to these descriptions, which are doubtless responsible for the medieval drawings representing the sambuca as a kind of tambourine,〔 notes: see and plate 42, where the illustration resembles a tambourine, but the description mentions strings, showing that the author himself was puzzled.〕 for Isidore of Seville elsewhere defines the symphonia as a tambourine. The is mentioned in the Bible ( verses 5 to 15). In the King James Bible it is erroneously translated as "sackbut". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sambuca (instrument)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
