The turtle 🐢 is a reptile (sauropsida) emanates respect and tranquility. Perhaps why our ancestors represent it in so many stories as the figure of the wise man and a symbol of good luck for a long life. Formerly the Lyres Chelis stile (turtle shell) in the ancient Greece, also named in mythology. Hermes being its creator and then giving it to his brother Apollo. They were made of a tortoise shell and goatskin for the soundboard. In addition to using horns for the necks, a bone crossbar and gut strings. Luckily for these animals, the lyre became extinct and although there are now a few fans of this instrument, today Nikolaos Brass is one of the few Luthiers who make the ancient Greek lyre with a carved wooden turtle shell. Certainly a laborious job. Or Luthieros who also make with plastic molds.
