According to the following website, the oldest it could possibly be is 54 years old because the 5RV Lyre was first introduced in 1965.

Now, O.T., as to the word "absoluno", it's Greek for "absolutely".
And, as for "lure" which I suspected was a typo since the letter "u" is located just to the right of "y" on the keyboard, I found it interesting that when you translate "lyre", with its English pronunciation being "līr", into Greek, this yields "Λύρα" which has the English pronunciation of "Lýra".
The following gives the pronunciation of "Lýra" which I found to be rather close to "Lyre":

Anyway, I suspected "absoluno" was from a different language, but I was quite surprised when I translated "Lyre" into that same language...which happened to be Greek.
