A kudu horn is typically made from the hollow, spiral horns of the kudu, a large antelope native to Africa. The horns are composed of keratin, the same protein found in human hair and nails. They are often used in traditional African ceremonies and as Musical Instruments, producing a deep, resonant sound when blown into.
