The Quena is an ancient upright flute with edge blowing, native to South America, especially in use among Ecuadorian, Chilean, Peruvian, Mexican, Bolivian and Northern Argentine Indians. Its origin is portrayed in existing paintings and drawings, made by people who inhabited, between 200 BC and 600 of our era, the cities of Nazca and Chimu, in Peru; where the instrument was once made from llama bone; its first examples were made with condor bones, stone or clay, materials later replaced by bamboo and wood... Quena is produced in the Greater Natural scale.
