Works for the Mandora
Le Roy and Ballard printed two books for the mandora in the sixteenth-century;
both are now lost. No other printed works are known, but both Virdung
and Agricola mention and diagram an instrument similar to the mandora
called a "quintern." In the Latin translation of Virdung 1511, Luscinius
labels this instrument the "lutina."
