Description
Summary:We don’t know the exact real date of using bells in ancient near east civilizations, but the most ancient evidence dates to the eighth or seventh century B.C. The bells are considered a musical instrument that were called "self sound percussion" But we come to find that it's not only used for musical purposes, but also in ancient daily activity like hanging them on horses and cattle's neck or as a part of a woman's jewelry or in the temples as a part of a ritual against evil spirits. Such practical uses make it more of a noise maker than a musical instrument. Nonetheless it's as an archaeological find earns it the right to be studied and examined
