Some say that the instrument was invented by the Aztecs, and that it later spread throughout Central and South America. This is probably not the case, since rainsticks are not found archaeologically or in Spanish accounts
The Aztecs made rainsticks as a musical instrument to mimic the sound of rain. They believed that the sound of rain created by the rainstick could summon rain from the gods and bring good fortune to their crops. It held cultural significance in their rituals and ceremonies related to agriculture and fertility.
It is believed that rainsticks originated among the tribes of Chile and Peru, but the name of the tribe(s) are unknown.
Rainsticks for centuries have been used in ceremonial rituals by various groups to bring rain to badly needed areas.
Active instruments include guitars, drums, and keyboards that require manual input to produce sound. Passive instruments include wind chimes, singing bowls, and rainsticks that produce sound through vibrations and resonance without the need for direct manipulation.
The musical instruments that are shaken are a form of percussion instrument. They include: -- bells -- tambourines (hand rings or drums ringed with small cymbal sets) -- maracas (bead-filled hollow wooden shakers) -- rainsticks (bead-filled sealed tubes that mimic the sound of raindrops falling)
