There is an African percussion instrument which could be referred to as a drum called an "Udu". The Udu is a jug/gourd shaped instrument. It has an open top & closed bottom with a hole in the side to allow more sound to come out.
When you hit the Udu on top with an open palm it makes a thick bass drum like sound. It's not a traditional drum in the sense that there is no skin to strike. I'm not certain that having a skin is a prerequisite to being classified a drum however it is referred to as such in text books etc.
The Udu functions like a bass drum with in the ensemble, it is struck with a flat, open palm similarly to how you would produce the bass note on a Djembe. Even if some purists out there may not consider the Udu a traditional drum it is definitely a part of the un-tuned percussion family and due to it's functionality within an ensemble is for all intents and purposes, a drum.

What are the different types of mallets?
There are several types of mallets, stretching from Bell kit plastic mallets, to yarn Marimba mallets, to Timpani Mallets, and all the way to Bass Drum Mallets. Marimba mallets come in different sizes so you can have a different echo and tone when you are playing. Bell Kit mallets are hard so the sound rings out, same with Timpani mallets, except they have soft ends that vibrate the heads of the Timpani, causing the echo all percussionists appreciate, and bass drum mallets have soft but firm ends so that when they strike the head of the drum, it delivers the BOOM all band directors love.
