The ghijak (also spelled ghidjak, ghichak, gidzhak, gijak, g'ijjak,[1] or ghijek (Uyghur: غىجەك, ғиҗәк, romanized: ghijek, or occasionally Uyghur: غىرجەك, ғирҗәк, romanized: ghirjek; Chinese: 艾捷克 aijieke or 吉孜哈克 jizihake; Russian: Гиджак), is a group of related spike fiddles, used by Afghans, Uzbeks, Uyghurs, Tajiks, Turkmens, Qaraqalpaks[2] and in the Xinjiang province of western China. Despite the similarity of the name, it is more closely related to the Persian kamancheh than the ghaychak.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghijak
