As per Wikipedia, we shared this small history to let our customers know about the instrument history. The taus, originally known as the mayuri veena, is a bowed string instrument from North India. In particular, musicians use it as a form of veena in North India with a peacock-shaped resonator called a mayuri, and they play it with the neck of the instrument on bow. Furthermore, some versions have sympathetic strings that go to the headstock like a Dilruba, so people know them as the mayuri dilruba.Moreover, researchers have found references to the mayuri veena in Malavikagnimitra, written by the Sanskrit poet Kalidasa between the 4th to 5th centuries CE. Notably, the name taus is a Persian translation of the word 'peacock', or mayura in Sanskrit. Additionally, people believe that Guru Hargobind, the sixth Guru of the Sikhs, played and adopted the taus for the Sikhs.Bhai Avtar Singh, a well-known taus player and ragi who practiced the historic style of kirtan, shares the story of the invention of the Taus in the following quote: The 6th Guru, Guru Hargobind Ji, conceived and designed the taus. Initially, the Guru and his Sikhs sang outdoors under a tree, enjoying God and nature. As was the old tradition, they played some string instruments. After a while, however, the musicians took a rest, and they leaned their instruments up against a tree. Suddenly, a peacock waddled into the group and cried in the wailing sound that belongs only to the peacock.  Ultimately, that's how Guru Hargobind Ji invented the taus, this provides a basic history of this instrument.
