About this audio guide
This guide to the Komboloi Museum in Nafplio follows the Greek string of worry beads from the prayer beads of four faiths to the coffee houses and parks where Greek men kept one in hand. It touches the quiet and the loud ways to play, the moves enthusiasts give names to, and the odd numbers of beads on every string. Best heard upstairs in the first room, before you reach the Greek strings.
