Flute music is apparently extremely important in Gorean theater. - (Magicians of Gor, Chapter 22, Sentence #160)

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. Flute music is apparently extremely important in Gorean theater. Indeed, we learn from Cabot's miscellaneous notes that the name of the flute player usually occurs on theatrical advertisements immediately after that of the major performer or performers. It seems the flute player is often on stage and accompanies performers about, pointing up speeches, supplying background music, and such. This is accepted as Gorean theatrical convention, it seems, much as background music is accepted in our modern films, even in such unlikely locations as city streets, airplanes, life rafts, and deserts. - (Magicians of Gor)
