In this article I want to discuss the history of drumming. It has been around for thousands of years and it has many different forms, but I am going to focus on African drumming.
The drum has been used in Africa since ancient times. The drum was used as a means of communication. It was used by the king and his courtiers to announce important events. The drum was also used by the people to communicate with each other.
The drum was made from wood or animal skin. It had a head and a handle. Sometimes the drum was made out of clay. The drum could be used by one person to communicate with others. The drum could also be played by a group of people. In some cases, there were drums that were played by two or more people at once.
There are many types of drums in Africa. They have names like:
• Animal Skin Drum – This type of drum is made out of animal skin. There are two types of these drums:
1) Large Animal Skin Drum – This type is usually made out of elephant skin.
