A traditional wind instrument from the Middle East and parts of Asia, similar to a long-necked flute or pipe made from reed or wood.
From Arabic or Persian origins, possibly related to 'duduk,' another Middle Eastern wind instrument. The term reflects the instrument's use across multiple cultures and regions.
Many ancient instruments like the dujan have names that sound onomatopoetic—'dud' and 'duj' mimic the mournful sounds they produce, so the name literally describes what you hear.
