What bone was the first clarinet made out of?
While an ancient clarinet-like instrument made from a sheep or goat thigh bone has been found, it was not a true clarinet. It would probably be classifed as a primitive chalumeau - a shepherds instrument that lacks the clarinet's upper register. (The clarinet was developed as a modification of the chalumeau.) Primative chalumeaus were more commonly made of cane, and the few surviving baroque chalameaus were typically made from wood. The bone instrument was not typical, and was probably not the even the first chalumeau.
