Iroquois Horn Rattle- Adult

The horn rattle is an animal horn, usually a cow, which also has been dried and hollowed out. A circular wooden top and bottom is carved to fit the horn. Then a wooden handle is carved and fitted to go through the top and bottom of the rattles. In the final step, seeds are placed inside to make a rattle sound. These rattles are used by the singers who accompany the lead singer who plays the water drum.
