I'll list some from Europe, and you can take your pick.

Lute, existed primarily within the 15th-16th centuries, used for formal and informal music, soon became extinct.
Violin, created around Italy during the 16th century, lightest and highest of sound. Most popular and pleasing of instruments in the stringed family.
Viola, somewhat larger than the violin, slightly deeper in depth, or sound.
Cello, even larger, even deeper in depth.
Bass, largest in the stringed family, deeper still.
Piano, originally the pianoforte, Italian for "softly", "gently" or "slowly". Created sometime during the later 17th-early 18th centuries. First key instrument where the chords of the piano are "plucked" with a small hammer, creating a softer sound that carried.
Spinet, harpsichord, and clavichord, predecessors of the piano but where the chords are "struck", producing a "tinnier" sound quality with a shorter range.

Here's a few interesting ones. Some are African versions of European instruments.
