The tarabuka (also darabuka) is an hourglass-shaped drum (goblet drum) of a medium size made from wood or metal and animal skin. Its origins have been tied to Greece, the Middle East and India but it is unknown exactly where it originated. It has a rhythmic sound when played with other musical instruments or even on its own.
In Bulgaria it is called the tarambuka and is often used as rhythmic accompaniment to the tambura.nl:Darabuka
