Natives were found to be using local
drum and percussion instruments such as
the guiro, maracas, and turtle shells, and
wind instruments such as zampona ( pan
pipes) and quena (notched-end flutes).

animal skins, fruit shells, dry seeds,
jaguar claws, animal and human bones
and especially-treated inflated eyes of
tigers.

ceremonies.
