Blowing Horn

A blowing horn, historically used by ancient cultures including Vikings and Native Americans, is a traditional wind instrument made from animal horns or shells. It produces sound through the vibration of the player’s lips against the horn’s mouthpiece, similar to a modern brass instrument but with a raw, primal timbre. Used ceremonially and in communication, its echoing, resonant tones carry far across landscapes, making it both a musical instrument and a tool of cultural significance.
