No, the first true pianos appeared around 1700 in Italy (well into the modern era).

In the medieval period there were stringed dulcimers plucked by hand (later played with a bow); there were both large and small bellows-operated organs with a keyboard (but no struck strings); there were huge organistra (hurdy-gurdies) played by two musicians, one turning a handle that rotated a disk against all the strings and another operating pegs that changed the notes played.

When did man make fire?
No one yet knows just when men began to make fire themselves, but scientists believe that it happened very early in history. They say that it must have come about as a result of the observation of sparks. Hot sparks blown by the wind spreads forest fires, and early toolmakers must have noticed that the rocks they chipped at often threw off similar sparks. It's likely that these first artisans obviously began to select those rocks that would make sparks every time they were struck. A very common mineral, iron pyrites, will give a shower of sparks when hit with another stone. Flint, the basis for many early tools, does this even better. This method of producing sparks by striking stones together is known a percussion, and all that is needed to start a fire is to direct the sparks to a pile of tinder made of dry leaves and tiny scraps of wood.

Why was lightning a threat for the cattle?
Cattle by nature are skittish animals. Lightning can cause cattle to become startled and bolt. In the days of the open range this was problematic on a number of levels. First, trying to stop stampeding cattle is inherently dangerous for both the animal and the cowboy. Second, it can scatter a herd across a large area causing lost time in retrieving them and it was quite easy to never recover all the animals. Today most cattle are fenced in but the west still has open grazing over large areas so it may still present a problem in those areas.Another Answer:Actually cattle in the old west stampeded from the sound of thunder, not lightning, though lightning wasn't completely not a factor in scaring cattle enough to scatter from where the cowboys were trying to keep them. There have been many reports of a number of cattle have been struck by lightning because they took shelter under tall trees, or if they were standing or laying on a tall hill where lightning would most likely could strike, especially if they're taking shelter from flood waters. Lightning strikes often kill cattle, and if they're standing or laying close together, will spread out among the other cattle killing them in addition to the one (or two) that got struck.
