Ancient Inca musical instruments imitated animal sounds using only the flow of water. These are shamanic tools called “whistling huacos” or “whistling jar.” It is estimated that most of the original jars were made around 500 BC - 1200 AD in Peru. These beautiful works of art, which can be found in many museums, are generally unique in their exterior design but quite similar in the functional construction of the sound-producing mechanisms. Increase the volume! 🔊 An impressive acoustic technology

Guci ini bisa meniru suara-suara binatang, seperti burung atau katak, dan dibuat oleh suku Inca kuno di Amerika Selatan. Inca Whistle Jar adalah artefak kuno berbentuk guci ganda dengan sistem ruang udara dan air. Ketika air dituangkan, tekanan udara akan mengalir melalui saluran tertentu dan menciptakan suara seperti peluit — mirip suara hewan. Alat ini diyakini digunakan untuk ritual, keagamaan, atau pengobatan oleh masyarakat Inca. #science #sains #faktaunik #faktamenarik #randomfakta #wukong
