Most huacas (Quechua for “sanctuary”), like this one, are based on the work of Sharon Rowell during the 80s, and aren't "traditional". The name was given later.
The fujara only has 3 finger holes, yet because of using various levels of overblowing, they have a range of over 3 octaves, though the middle 2 are the most useful musically-speaking. Due to using more overblowing, it’s often referred to as a bass overtone flute. I don't agree with this classification, because in that case most flutes will be overtone flutes too.

this is being sold as "a Japanese flute". seller doesn't know which. at first glance I thought it was a shinobue but... well, look at it.
anyone knows what type of instrument is this? it might not even be Japanese, but it looks too well-built to be a generic souvenir. can a music person tell me what are those four bottom holes in parallel?

Wikipedia says that the Balkan-Anatolian kaval has one thumb hole plus four unfingered "intonation holes", which would match this pattern.transmom.love
