My interpretation is supported by information supplied by a colleague in the Classics Department, to the effect that there is a Greek expression for a flute which might be transliterated as aulos. - (Magicians of Gor, Chapter 22, Sentence #156)

* Twice in the manuscript, later, Cabot refers to a "Flute Street". From the context it seems clear that this is "Aulus". I have accordingly edited the manuscript in the interests of consistency, changing "Flute Street" to "Aulus". My interpretation is supported by information supplied by a colleague in the Classics Department, to the effect that there is a Greek expression for a flute which might be transliterated as aulos. I think we may assume then, apart from contextual considerations, that "Aulus" and "Flute Street" are the same street. My conjecture is that aulos was absorbed into Gorean as 'aulus'. An additional consideration is that "Aulus" is one of the streets bordering the great theater, that of Pentilicus Tallux. - (Magicians of Gor)
