Fang-Bulu, Cameroun. 90 cm long. Often in a zoomorphic shape, most of these drums can be found in the Grasslands. This unusual gong is in the shape of a gorilla. These 'talking' drums were used for daily communication in village communities until recently. Leaders would beat out different patterns to communicate with all those in hearing, such as the approach of strangers or to call a meeting. (VJ)
