Bow made of wood and hair. A short piece of wood is bent into a 'U' shape, with several strands of what appears to be horse hair stretched between the ends, and attached by white plastic tape. The wood is partially painted green.
Stringed musical instrument. A long thin neck of wood is joined to a long, narrow, wood body which is partially wrapped in skin attached by metal nails to the instrument’s underside. Plastic strings stretch from the neck, where they are held by staggered leather thongs, to a wooden bridge near the bottom of the body, meeting several cotton strings that are used for tightening. A thin braided leather strap is connected to the bottom of the body and partway along the neck.
Stringed musical instrument. A long squared neck of wood, carved with several sets of diagonal lines, pierces the top of a round, hollow gourd, emerging as a short peg on the opposite side. Two long wood pins pierce the neck, each holding a metal string that stretch to make contact with a small wood bridge on the gourd, and extend to wrap around the peg. The bridge is glued to a piece of skin stretched over a large hole in the top of the gourd, attached with small wood pins. Gourd is decorated with carved lines in the shape of foliage.
Rattle drum with beater. Drum is constructed of a wooden core with a long thin centre that widens on both ends, where they are covered with stretched skin. The drum skins are attached to a rounded wooden rim by thick thread. Dozens of twisted strands of hide stretch between the two rims, partially hiding the wooden core. A leather strap is tied to a strand on one side, and a woven rope is attached to one rim by a thong of hide on the side opposite. Inside the wooden core are small dark brown seeds that create a rattling sound when the drum is moved. Part b is a beater carved from a single piece of wood, with a handle that narrows as it reaches a bend at top that culminates in a cone shape that is used to hit the drum.
