From the period of mountain hunting culture to the early period of grassland nomadic culture, the musical instruments used by Mongolians were not Ma Touqin, but plucked instruments such as Hobbes and Tubshur, which were mostly used for entertainment and song and dance. According to the records in the Secret History of Mongolia and the History of the Yuan Dynasty, from Genghis Khan to Kublai Khan, the Mongolian national musical instruments were mainly plucked instruments, and the Mongolian soldiers and civilians in the Yuan Dynasty were good at playing with fire and thinking, and liked to dance and step on songs collectively. With the rapid development of grassland nomadic music, Ma Touqin, a stringed instrument, was born and widely popularized, and eventually replaced plucked string as the most grassland-featured folk musical instrument in Mongolia. Obviously, when stringed instruments replace plucked instruments, the fire will gradually subside, and Ma Touqin will naturally become the protagonist of Mongolian musical instruments.

Ma Touqin, named after the carved horse's head. "Draft of the Qing Dynasty" contains: "Huqin, smooth in texture, with two strings and a square handle. The trough is oval-pointed, with skin, the wood outside the trough is like a hairpin, and the faucet is a mountain pass. The string is hollow, with two axes, one left and one right, and eighty-one stems tied with wooden ponytails. " Therefore, Ma Touqin originally had a dragon head. This point was recorded as early as 7 1 Records of Rites and Music in Yuan Dynasty: "The Huqin system is like a fire without thinking, with a curled neck and a dragon with two strings, which are pressed by a bow, and the strings of the bow are ponytails." According to rock paintings and some historical materials, the ancient Mongols began to process yogurt spoons, wrapped them in cowhide, and pulled up two ponytail strings as musical instruments, which were called "spoon-shaped huqin". At present, many experts believe that this is the predecessor of Ma Touqin. At that time, the longest spoon-shaped huqin was about two feet, and the speaker was smaller, so the sound was much smaller. Up to now, some people in western Mongolia still call Ma Touqin "spoon-shaped huqin". At that time, the piano head was not necessarily a horse's head, but a human head, skull, crocodile head, turtle shell or faucet. In addition, it is said that the head of this kind of piano is in the shape of a monkey head or a martel head. Martel is shaped like a dragon and a monkey, symbolizing a sacred object that suppresses evil spirits. According to relevant scholars' research, Ma Touqin was born at the end of 19 and the beginning of the 20th century, and the head of the piano was changed from a dragon head or a martel head to a horse head. In addition, there are many kinds of pianos, such as Pihu, Shovel Hu, Xiqin and Xiqin, which were all popular instruments at that time. In the Yuan Dynasty, with the gradual prosperity of court life, there were specialized performers and dancers in the court, and Ma Touqin gradually became one of the main contents of court music.

Ma Touqin is the most suitable musical instrument for playing Mongolian ancient long tune, which can accurately express Mongolian life, such as vast grassland, whistling wind, sad mood, galloping horseshoes, happy countryside and so on. Related to this, the overall status of Mongolian national musical instruments in the Yuan Dynasty has been obviously improved, not only accompanied by dances and songs, but also pure instrumental music, such as Swan in the Sea and Ghost Sparrow, which really made great progress.

By the beginning of18th century, great changes had taken place in the appearance and structure of Ma Touqin. With the innovation of Ma Touqin's piano, Ma Touqin's playing skills have also been created and developed, and many folk rappers have emerged.
