The flute has appeared in different forms and locations around the world and is probably the oldest instrument in the world. We don't know who first blew into a hollow bone and liked the sound. Flutes date back to prehistoric times. Read on for more.

A three-hole flute made from a mammoth tusk, from the Geißenklösterle cave in the German Swabian Alps and dated to 30,000 to 37,000 years ago, and two flutes made from swan's bones excavated a decade earlier from the same cave in Germany, dated to circa 36,000 years ago are among the oldest known musical instruments. The flute has been dated to prehistoric times. A fragment of the femur of a juvenile cave bear with two to four holes found at Divje Babe in Slovenia and dated to about 43,100 years ago may also be an early flute. Some early flutes were made out of tibias (shin bones).

Therefore, Jubal is regarded in the Judeo-Christian tradition as the inventor of the flute.
