Abstract
Abstract This article was written as a contribution to the study of Mongolian musicology, including court musicology. The musical instruments made of wood, named “Ekhlegch”, “Khuraagch” and “Uelegch” were a part of the court musical orchestra of the Great Yuan State of Mongolia although they are no longer used, their purpose is not always clear, the names, descriptions, and drawings of them have been recorded in some old sources and works of musicologists. It is believed that studying these instruments and clarifying their functions will contribute to the further development of Mongolian musical studies and the structure and composition of the orchestra. Also, it would be another interesting study to compare the hand drawings of musical instruments, which were recorded in old sources as part of the ancient Mongolian court orchestra, but have not been preserved today.
