The use of sound has been well documented throughout history. Neolithic communities in China used drums made of natural materials such as hollowed out logs and animal skins around 5500BC. Egyptian, Greek, Roman cultures and Native Americans tribes, all used the drum during ceremonies, rituals and military campaigns to rouse and inspire the soldiers to battle. They were used in communication to send messages and coordinate activities. The rhythmic beats became a universal language, breaking down barriers and exchanging information between communities.
In the Middle Ages drums evolved across cultures and became the foremost percussion instrument. It was popular as it was versatile, bringing in vitality to dancing and festivals using energetic rhythms. It was also used in Religious faiths such as Islam and Paganism.
