Boyan or Bayan is the name of a bard who was mentioned in the Rus' epic The Lay of Igor's Campaign as being
active at the court of Yaroslav the Wise. He is apostrophized as Veles's grandson in the opening lines of The Lay
(probably a reference to Veles as the patron of musicians). Historians have been unable to determine whether
Boyan was his proper name (as Nikolai Karamzin and Fyodor Buslayev postulated) or all skalds of Rus were
called boyans (Alexander Vostokov). A bayan (accordion) was named after Boyan upon its invention in 1907.
