The SHAMAN DRUM was used by the shamans of the northern peoples in their ceremonies. Shamans were healers and fortune tellers who called upon the spirits for help by using a reindeer bone drumstick to beat the drum until falling into a trance. During their trance, the shaman could take on the form of an animal as he wandered through the mythological underworld of Tuonela, where the dead gave advice for resolving problems.
