Psalterium
A psalterium, or tambourin à cordes, is a stringed musical instrument, the name of which means the same thing as the one of psaltery. In specific usage, this name denotes a form of long psaltery that is tuned to provide drone chords. Sometimes called a string drum, it is usually used as rhythm accompaniment with a form of tabor pipe. It is also known as tambourin de Béarn in French, ttun-ttun in Basque, and chicotén in Aragonese. Some authors have called into question the inclusion of the Pyrenean stringed drum under the name of psalterium.
Chambers 20th Century Dictionary
Psalterium
sawl-tē′ri-um, n. the third division of a ruminant's stomach, the omasum or manyplies.
