Huehuetl
The Huéhuetl was built with the trunk of a hollowed tree, placed vertically and open at the bottom. The upper part is covered with jaguar or other animal petals and, it is played with the palms and fingers to produce three refined sounds and multiple effects. This form of drumming the huéhuetl without using any additional element is noticed in the representations of the codices and does not correspond to the one currently used, with sticks lined with wool or leather.
