'Tanb???r Long-Necked Lutes Along the Silk Road and Beyond' explores the origin, history, construction, and playing techniques of tanb???rs, a musical instrument widely used over vast territories and over many centuries.

Similar or identical instruments are also known by other names, such as saz or baglama, dot???r or dut???r, set???r, d???mbra, and dambura.
