Bagpipe

The origins of the bagpipe can be traced back to the most ancient civilizations. The bagpipe probably originated as a rustic instrument in many cultures because a herdsman had the necessary materials at hand: a goat or sheep skin and a reed pipe. The instrument is mentioned in the Bible and historians believe that it originated in Sumeria. Through Celtic migration it was introduced to Persia and India and subsequently to Greece and Rome, and now it is enjoyed by all cultures across the globe. Measures 7.5" width by 5.5" height.
