   Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.03 sec.

aulos

Ancient Greek double-reed musical instrument, the equivalent of the Latin tibia and akin to the modern oboe.

The double aulos often seen in paintings and sculpture would have enabled the melody to be accompanied by a drone, both sets of reeds being blown simultaneously by one player.
