An autoharp is a string instrument with chord bars attached to dampers in order to mute the strings not being activated.
An autoharp is strummed like a guitar, but you use push buttons to select the chords. The push buttons cause selected strings to be dampened and not sound when you strum them, allowing the remaining strings to form the desired chord.
An autoharpist is a person who plays the autoharp, a string instrument with chord bars attached to dampers in order to mute the strings not being activated.

Sounds like it could be a hurdy-gurdy. Does it appear to have a crank & wheel, too? If it has more than 5 strings, it could be an autoharp. Both are stringed instruments that use a series of buttons or keys to stop the strings.
No, though some can be used for both depending on the size and type. Metal strings are seldom used on an ukulele as the instrument is not designed for the stress.

Chromatic. Diatonic autoharps hadn't been invented yet.
