Following the human voice, musical instruments hold significant importance in conveying emotions through music. These instruments are categorized based on their design and operation, resulting in a variety of sounds. A subset of these musical instruments comprises Aerophones. This article aims to delve into the historical narrative of a specific Aerophone that boasts a longstanding presence and significance in Iran. The musical instrument we are studying is Musiqar/ Pan Flute (syrinx). We aim to investigate the history, mechanism, and life of the Musiqar through the analysis of archaeological findings and historical documents. Archaeological findings indicate the enduring presence of this musical instrument within the cultural milieu of Iran, notably during the Seleucid-Parthian era. Its significance persisted through subsequent periods, notably during the Islamic era, where it held a prominent position among other Iranian musical instruments. Among the earliest known artifacts depicting this instrument in Iran is a figurine discovered at the archaeological site of Susa, now housed in the National Museum of Iran. According to archaeological evidence and historical texts, this musical instrument has been disseminated across different regions through political and cultural interactions. This research indicates that the instrument has diverse origins in both Europe and the Far East. Iranian scholars have extensively documented the Pan Flute and its mechanisms in various texts, which will be further explored in the subsequent discussion. Archaeological evidence pertaining to this instrument includes Seleucid-Parthian figurines and a Sassanid period vase. The instrument's presence appears to have endured upon its introduction to Iran, as supported by references in written records and archaeological remnants.
