The guitarist Arion was a native of Mythimna (Lesvos Island) (625 - 585 B.C.) He is renowned for perfecting the dithiramb, the ancient singing pattern, by embedding rythm and orchestration.

There is a story telling about Arion and his lyre: Arion was aboard a ship travelling from Sicely to Korinth, when the mafia-sailors plotted to kill him. Arion then asked to sing to the Gods before being thrown to the sea.

So charming he played his guitar that a dolphin, attracted by his music, was so delighted that brought him off to the shore at Cape Taenarum.
