A lord killed a white horse with his bow. The pet's owner, named Suhe, was sorrowful and missed his pet day and night. One night the dead horse came into his dream, saying to him, "Make an instrument with my body. Then I can accompany you for ever and you will not fell lonely." So the first type was made, with the horse hones as its neck, the horsehair as its strings, the horse skin covering its wooden soundbox, and its scroll carved into the shape of a horse head.The instrument has quite a few other names both in Mongolian and in Chinese in different areas. Its use is beyond the Inner Mongolian region and can be seen in other Mongolian living areas such as northeast and northwest China and even in Xinjiang region.In performance the finger joints of the left hand stop the strings, and more distinctively, finger nails can push the strings from inside out. The effect of double stop is often seen. The two strings are traditional ballet tuned a fourth apart.
