Jawbone (instrument)
The quijada (or jawbone in English ) is a traditional Latin percussion instrument that is cleaned of tissue and dried so the teeth can loosen and act as a rattle. They are traditionally made from the jawbone of either a mule, horse, or donkey.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.music.vt.edu/musicdictionary/ )〕 To play, a musician holds one half in one hand and strikes the other with either a stick or their hand; this causes the teeth to rattle against the bone creating a loud, untuned sound, original to this instrument.
It is used in music throughout most of Latin America, including Mexico, Peru, El Salvador, Ecuador, and Cuba.〔
==Historical and cultural content==
While it is used in most Latin American countries, the quijada gets its origin from the Africans that were brought to the Americas during the colonial era.〔 It is also believed that it was first introduced in Peru, making it an Afro-Peruvian instrument. It is used in traditional and contemporary Latin music; an example is a (song being played ) in Oaxaca, Mexico, using the Quijada to keep the beat for the "cancion". The quijada de burro is most commonly used at carnivals and religious festivals.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.grownupbandgeek.com/quijada-de-burro/ )〕
This instrument is one example of a mix of two different cultures, African and Indigenous, that created an instrument that gained value for the people of Latin America.
