Gajde

Alternative name for the Gajda of Svrljig (eastern Serbia), suggested by Vukosavljević, according to whom the instrument arrived with the numerous migrants who settled in Serbia, coming from "Ere", which is the popular name for the area around Mount Dinara (a prominent peak in the centre of the Dinaric Alps, on the border of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Dalmatian part of Croatia).
