Шаблон:Short description The charota, is a musical instrument played in Ireland, whose exact description is contested.

According to Irish historian Gratton Flood, it was a small harp played with a bow. The instrument could be rested on knees or on a table.[1]

Flood notes that the historian GerbertШаблон:Who had described the charota as an oblong instrument with six strings, four of which on a fingerboard and two off of it.[2]

Historian Carl Engel noted that a 6th-century CE Italian writer, Venantius Fortunatus, had mentioned the "Charota Britanna" in a poem, but did not mention any bow.[3]
