Instrument used to hunt animals consisting of two or three balls of stone or other heavy material, lined with leather and tied to two ropes joined by a common rope.

The city of Santiago del Estero in Argentina is known as a region where several renowned folkloric dancers and musicians started.

Around 1950, Santiago Ayala we call El Chucaro had the idea of mixing boleadoras and percussion.
