Onavillu
An onavillu is a simple, short, bow-shaped musical instrument. Its name may come from ''Onam'', a festival in Kerala where the instrument is used in dances, and ''villu'', which means 'bow' in Malayalam (and several other South Indian languages).

''Onavillu'' also refers to flat, tapered wooden artifacts decorated with tassels and used in ceremonies of devotion to Lord Vishnu. Instrument The onavillu that accompanies the Kummattikali and other folk dances is a Keralite string instrument made from the pith of the palmyra stem, or from bamboo, shaped as a bow.
