I want this in game!
Posted: Fri Nov 28, 2008 3:12 pmWe currently have an exhibition at work featuring a shaman's drum from the Sami people of northern Europe:

From the blurb on the Museum's website:
This display focuses on a drum made in Scandinavia in the 1600s by the Sámi people.
In the hands of a skilled shaman it was a magical weapon that could help to protect the community. Its skin is covered in painted designs including reindeer, the sun and moon, and a man in a boat travelling across the underworld sea. These represent guides and accounts of journeys to other realms – to the worlds of spirits and gods.
I'd camp that in a heartbeat
