Tamboo bamboo

Probable

Stamped-bamboo percussion — lengths of bamboo pounded and struck in ensemble — best documented in Trinidad's pre-steelpan carnival but part of the wider Afro-Caribbean vocabulary of found-material music-making that in Jamaica runs through Jonkonnu fife-and-drum and mento's bamboo instruments.
