Mečibone (-)
original: მეჭიბონე
NB¹: The text in the Atlas (➺ sources, below) explicitly states that term is used for the piper [only!], whereas in the video and its subtitles the term is used, without distinction, for a manufacturer of Čiboni as well. The statement that "the shepherd created it and was such a player" seems to suggest that each piper used to make his own instrument(s); NB²: According to Mr. Murad Tavartkiladze (მურად თავართქილაძე) [➺ video], "Only 6 people make Chibones (➺ Čiboni) in Adjara today [i.e. 2020; ws]".
