Definition
A medieval stringed musical instrument similar to a lute or fiddle, played with a bow.
Etymology
From Old French 'citole,' possibly from Latin 'cithara' (a stringed instrument); the instrument name reflects medieval musical culture and instrument evolution.
Kelly Says
The citola is a musical ghost—by the Renaissance it had completely vanished from use, but its name preserves a memory of medieval entertainment that would have been common in every castle and court.
