The Jew’s harp is a lamellophone instrument, which is in the category of plucked idiophones. The Jew’s harp hungarian name is doromb. Maybe this name come from Middle-Asia and relativ with Dombra musical instruments name. But the first mention known only in 16th century, therefore likely that the Doromb come from german Trummel, and relativ with polish Drumla, Slovakian Drumbla, Hucul Drimba and romaian drimba.
