The story of Dhol
Dhol is a metal, decorated cylinder with small bells, a kind of double-sided drum. One of the membranes is thicker than the other. The bass side of the dhol is approximately 10 mm in diameter. Both the cylinder and the membranes can be made of various materials. Membrane selection depends on the type of dhol. Ancient Armenians used ceramics, walnuts, copper. Despite the heavy weight of the walnut, it is most often used, since this material has the best timbre. Membrane, or membranes can be both on both sides, and on one. If the membrane is on both sides, then they are connected by a string. Also, the sound of a dhol depends on the elasticity of the string.
The Armenian people have a huge number of musical instruments. A variety of tambourines, drums were used throughout historical Armenia. The earliest references to Armenian musical instruments date back to the XXX-XX centuries BC. According to ancient manuscripts, several types of timpani (percussion musical instrument with a certain pitch) were used during the worship of the ancient Armenian goddess Anahit. Ancient plates dating from around 800 BC were found during excavations of the Karmir Blur hill, 30 km north of Yerevan.
