It is said that Sanxian originated from Xianqi in Qin and Han Dynasties, and the name of Sanxian first appeared in Jiaofang Ji written by Cui Lingqin in Tang Dynasty, but the shape of Sanxian is not described in detail. Sanxian flourished in the Yuan Dynasty, and it was one of the main accompaniment instruments in the Yuan Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty, Yang Shen thought that "Sanxian started in the Yuan Dynasty", while in the Qing Dynasty, Mao Qiling thought that "Sanxian started in the Qin Dynasty, and the system of thirty drums changed its shape and was easy to ring, which was called drumming. In the Tang Dynasty, there were many musicians in Xi Zhi, and the world thought that Hu music was not right".
