Slit drum (Vanuatu) (original) (raw)
In Vanuatu, a slit drum is a musical instrument that is traditionally played by men of high rank. In most islands of Vanuatu, the drum has little to no decoration, and is played horizontally on the ground. On the island of Ambrym though, such drums stand vertically on the ground; they are decorated with one or several faces with disk eyes, representing ancestral figures; such a figure is called atingting kon. The distinctive shape of these Ambrym drums has made them iconic of Vanuatu as a whole; they are frequently found in museums around the world, represented on Vanuatu banknotes, and featured in the tourism industry.

dbo:abstract | En Vanuatu, un tambor de hendidura es un instrumento musical que tradicionalmente es tocado por hombres de alto rango, suelen tener una altura de unos tres metros y son troncos de árboles ahuecados por artesanos. En la mayoría de las islas de Vanuatu, el tambor tiene poca o ninguna decoración, y se toca horizontalmente en el suelo. Sin embargo, en la isla de Ambrym, estos tambores se colocan verticalmente en el suelo; están decorados con una o varias caras con ojos de disco, que representan figuras ancestrales, tal figura se llama «tamtam». La forma distintiva de estos tambores de Ambrym los ha convertido en un ícono de Vanuatu en su conjunto; con frecuencia se encuentran en museos de todo el mundo, también están representados en los billetes de Vanuatu y en la industria del turismo.
