Don't get me started on that. Otherwise I would have to mention those recent archeological finds in the Bethlehem area, evidencing an ancient musical band, called the Heavenly Hosts, whose prominent soloist was a lute player. So famous he was for his finger style playing, that you can still see that musician depicted in many replicas today. More often than not, wings are added to the replicas, but that's based on a fictitious ancient description by some certain Lukas. In fact, there's no HIP evidence for wings with the HHs's lead lutenist.
