The goblet drum, also known as darbuka, is a single head membranophone with a goblet shaped body used mostly in the Middle East, North Africa, and Eastern Europe. The origin of the term darbuka probably lies in the Arabic word "darba" ("to strike"). The original use of goblet drums in Babylonia and Sumeria dates from as early as 1100 BCE. On Celebes one large form serves as a temple instrument, set on the floor when performed, which could be a survival of the ancient use of the drum.
