The tops of African drums are typically called "drum heads." These drum heads can be made from animal skins or synthetic materials and are crucial for producing sound. The tension and thickness of the drum head significantly affect the tone and pitch of the drum. In some cultures, specific terms may be used for different types of drums and their heads.
