Where was the bass drum first made?

Answer 1

Contrary to one would most often believe, drums were more than likely not invented in Africa, but in the Middle East, in Mesopotamia or modern-day Iraq. The oldest drums to ever be discovered were found in Iraq, dating back to 3000 BC. In the same general area, there are carvings that depict drums and date back to about 6000 BC.

Answer 2

As we don't have any remain from prehistoric drums , we can only guess what was the very first type of drums used by human beings.

A drum has to be constituted by a hollow body covered or not by something like a skin ( mammals , fish ). A natural hollow body can be a bamboo or a hollow log from a dead tree. The percussion has certainly been used for hunting and/or shamanistic purposes.
