Akan Drum
The Akan Drum is a drum that was made in West Africa and was later found in the Colony of Virginia in North America. It is now the oldest African-American object in the British Museum and possibly the oldest surviving anywhere.〔 The drum is a reminder of all three continents' involvement in the estimated twelve million people transported across the Atlantic as part of the slave trade.〔 The drum is normally displayed in room 26.〔(British Museum ), ''The drummer is calling me'' display.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://sites.google.com/a/mpelembe.net/world-news/home/ancient-african-drum-british-museum )〕 ==Description== The drum is made from two species of wood that are native to sub-Saharan Africa, ''Baphia'' and ''Cordia africana''. The latter fine-grained hardwood is known for its ability to be carved and its resonance, which makes it suited to musical instruments. The drumskin came from a deer hide and was stretched over the wooden structure using vegetable fibre.
