Plural of cithara; multiple ancient Greek stringed instruments similar to lyres.
The regular plural form of the Latin/English noun cithara, formed by adding '-s' (or '-es' in some contexts).
Archaeological excavations in Greece have found cithara-like instruments dating back over 3,000 years, and by comparing ancient depictions and fragmentary remains, musicians have actually reconstructed playable versions—a kind of time-traveling performance archaeology.
