Özet

Vargan, which is a musical instrument that originated in Asia and whose earliest archaeological examples can be found in Northeast Asia, is commonly known as "jew's harp" throughout the world. It is known that this instrument could be found in Europe by the 13th century and spread to Africa and America from there.
