Whistles made of bone or wood have been used for thousands of years for spiritual, practical, and, or entertainment purposes. A very distinctive whistle is the boatswain's pipe which was used aboard naval vessels to issue commands and salute dignitaries. The modern whistle has evolved from pipes used in ancient Greece and Rome to keep the stroke of galley slaves. There was also a medieval version that was used during the Crusades to assemble English crossbow men on deck for an attack.
The model currently being produced by the Acme Whistle Company of Birmingham, England, was first manufactured in 1868 by the company's founder, Joseph Hudson.
Modern Era of use began in 1878 via referee usage.
