Plutarch, Die alten Sitten der Spartaner:
17.
If anyone presumed to transgress in any way the rules of the good old music, they would not permit this; but even Terpander, one of the oldest and the best harp-player of his time as well as a devoted admirer of the deeds of the heroes, the Ephors none the less fined, and carried away his instrument and nailed it to the wall because he put in just one extra string for the sake of the variety in the notes; for they approved only the simpler melodies. Moreover, when Timotheus was competing at the Carneian Festival, one of the Ephors took a knife, and asked him on which side he should cut out the superfluous strings beyond the usual seven.

19.
It was not allowed them to go abroad, so that they should have nothing to do with foreign ways and undisciplined modes of living.

[Plutarch: Moralia III. Ed. by Frank Cole Babbitt. Cambridge (Mass.)/London 72004, pp. 426-449]
