is a fiction; much like Santa Claus, if you will.
From Joseph Zuth: "Handbuch der Laute und Gitarre", entry on page 36
Bergier, Ungay, 16. Jhdt. (?), In einem alten alten Lautenbuch der
Berliner Statsbibl.
Arthur Ness mentioned this ridiculous entry here on the list ages ago.
Zuth is citing Eitner here.

PS
The error was noticed in "Nachträge und VErbesserungen zu Eitners
Quelleblexikon" in 1912, already.
Apparently, Zuth did not know this.
