Instrument plucked in ancient Greece (4)

I believe the answer is:

lyre

(Other definitions for lyre that I've seen before include "Sort of harp" , "Type of harp" , "Old musical instrument with strings in U-shaped frame" , "Instrument played by Orpheus" , "Ancient musical instrument - sounds mendacious" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
