INTRODUCTION
XV. simpozij študijske skupine ICTM za glasbeno arheologijo z imenom Glasba v kameni
dobi bo pokazatelj sodobnih raziskav o možnih zvočilih prazgodovinskih človeških glasbenih kultur in o njihovih večplastnih implikacijah za poreklo glasbe v začetkih človeštva.
Simpozij bo, poleg obravnavanja sodobnih projektov in rezultatov, prispeval k poglobitvi
potekajočih razprav in postregel z objavo podatkov v načrtovani antologiji (Publikacije
študijske skupine ICTM za glasbeno arheologijo).
XV Symposium of the ICTM Study Group on Music Archaeology - Music in the Stone
Age - will be a platform of current research on the possible sound tools of prehistoric
human music cultures and on their multiple implications for the origins of music in the
early stage of humanity. Besides relecting current projects and results, the symposium is
intended to deepen ongoing discussions, and to publish the information in a forthcoming
anthology (Publications of the ICTM Study Group on Music Archaeology).
Referati se osredotočajo predvsem na izdelavo, glasbeno rabo ter pomen zvočnih artefaktov, za katere verjamemo da so paleolitska, mezolitska in neolitska glasbila ter na organološka dognanja in kulturne interakcije v zgodnjem obdobju človeške glasbe.
Papers of the symposium principly consider the making, playing, and meaning of sound
artefacts believed to be Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic musical instruments, and
organological developments and cultural interactions in the early phase of human music.
V času simpozija bosta potekali panel in okrogla miza s inančno podporo Evropskega
glasbenoarheološkega projekta (EMAP). Njun namen je ponovno obujanje diskusije o preluknjani stegnenici jamskega medveda, najdeni v jami Divje babe I na Slovenskem, ki je v
preklosti bila deležna ostrih debat, namreč ali gre za piščal ustvarjeno v času Neandertalcev ali ne. Najdba kar naprej ostaja vir navdiha za raziskovalce. Tako v sklopu delavnice
kot tudi v sklopu okrogle mize bomo predstavili, soočili in odprto predebatirali argumente
za in proti.
During the symposium a panel and round table funded by the European Music Archaeology Project (EMAP) will be held. The event is intended to reconsider divergent views
on the perforated thighbone of a cave bear excavated in the Divje Babe I cave, Slovenia,
which lead to the heated controversy if this object could be a lute produced in the time of
the Neanderthals. The ind stimulated research over the last two decades, and the debate
is ongoing. On the workshop and round table both pro- and counter-arguments will be
addressed and openly discussed.
Vredno je opozoriti na petkov popoldan, ki ga bo zaznamoval vodeni ogled potujoče multimedijske glasbene razstave ARHEOMUZIKA v Narodnem muzeju Slovenije ter na dva
koncertna večera v sklopu festivala Noči v stari Ljubljani.
Other important events of the symposium are an afternoon with a guided tour to the
travelling multimedia music exhibition ARHEOMUZIKA at the National Museum of
Slovenia, and two concert evenings within the festival Nights in Old Ljubljana Town.

Studies on the Music of Palaeolithic Europe: About
the Evolution of Symbolic Thinking, Music and
Language
When and where are the evolutionary steps to symbolic thinking, music and language situated? This paper provides a summary from the irst possible symbolic artefacts in Africa
and Europe to the "big bang of culture" in the European Upper Palaeolithic. Cognitive
archaeology adds a new kind of communication to this context. In the stage of the appearance of cultural modernity and creative arts in our modern sense deinitely intentionally
made musical instruments are present in a remarkable number. The main inds will be
considered and a typology of the palaeolithic aerophones, with special emphasis on their
use (e.g. hunting purpose), will be suggested. Some replicas will also be presented.
All human societies produce powerful and essential emotional activities. They combine solidarity and a sense of play and pleasure. Among them music is the most universal, and has the
most powerful signiicance. Singing or dancing rarely yields material evidence, though they can
sometimes be associated with basic instruments such as leaves or stalks.
A musical activity makes it possible to it into the order of the universe, into a cosmic and natural harmony, into the unfolding of time. Those essential laws of the human mind ind material
evidence in the case of Divje Babe as early as sixty thousand years ago. The speciic location
of this isolated cave probably accounts for the use of bones, which were easy to be found on
the spot.
Finally, the paper addresses the question whether diferent kinds of universals in world-music can contribute to the general concept of the irst music in our modern sense as well
as to the irst presumable musical ways of signalling and communication.

Music in the Cave - Who Were the First Musicians?
nicholas j. conard
Modern humans frequently use music and colour, especially in their rituals, since both of
them inluence our emotions. Pigments were used early in human history, but sophisticated
wall paintings and portable art started to appear relatively late in the Palaeolithic. What
about music? Were Neanderthals expert musicians as lute from Slovenian cave site Divje
Babe I implies? Was music known even earlier or did it appear later, with the emergence of
modern humans? It seems that complex society with diferent sort of rituals occurred at the
beginning of the Upper Palaeolithic. It might be that this occurrence was conditioned by
cognitive changes, typical for modern humans. Maybe such changes enabled us to invent
stories that were part of the diferent rituals and complex music might evolve to make those
stories more emotional and thus easier to remember.

Pihala iz Švabske Jure: pregled in trenutno stanje raziskav
Wind Instruments of the Swabian Jura:
Overview and Current State of Research
The oldest material evidence for music and a musical tradition was found in the Aurignacian deposits of the caves of the Swabian Jura. In three caves, Geißenklösterle and Hohle Fels
in the Ach Valley between Blaubeuren and Schelklingen, and Vogelherd Cave in the Lone
Valley near Niederstotzingen, remains of bird bone and ivory lutes have been found in layers dating to 42 – 36 ka cal BP. The three most complete lutes are the two bird bone lutes
made from a swan’s (GK1) and a vulture’s radius (HF1), and the lute made from mammoth
ivory (GK3). The fact that they have been found in both valleys indicates that music was a
regular feature in the lives of people starting no later than 40,000 years ago.
In the course of the last 20 years experimental archaeology has become an important tool
to study past societies, and this is especially true for musical instruments. By playing on
reconstructions, we gain an immediate impression of the potential sounds and music of the
Upper Paleolithic.
This paper presents the archaeological inds and reconstructions of these lutes made by Friedrich Seeberger and Wulf Hein. We examine the tonality and musical possibility of these
instruments when played by Anna Friederike Potengowski. This research demonstrates the
great diversity of sounds and tones these instruments can produce and provides an idea of
the potential Aurignacian soundscape 40,000 years ago.

Mousteriensko glasbilo iz Divjih bab I:
trenutno stanje raziskav in védenja
Mousterian Musical Instrument from Divje Babe I:
The State of Current Research and Knowledge
In 1995, a perforated femur of a young cave bear was found in the cemented layer 8a of
the Palaeolithic cave site Divje Babe I in western Slovenia. Supposition that the object
could be a lute led to heated debates. The crucial question was related to the origin of the
holes. These could only have been made either by a carnivore or by a human being.
The ind from Divje Babe I is the most known and the most analyzed Slovene archaeological ind. After more than 20 years of research there are more and more arguments that
the ind is actually an artefact. Moreover, recent musical experiments made on a replica
conirmed that the perforated bone was a very eicient musical instrument.
Arguments for carnivore origin of the holes are critically reviewed and arguments for their
artiicial origin are presented. XCT analyses revealed traces of human agency and called
into question the origin of some features previously declared solely as of carnivore origin.
Together with some other indings from the site, the Neanderthal musical instrument ofers
a unique albeit still controversial insight into the Neanderthals' spiritual world and their
exceptional discoveries.

Mousterian Bone Flute from Divje Babe I:
Presentation of Ljuben Dimkaroski's Musical
Research and Findings
Several researchers studied the Divje Babe Mousterian bone lute from the musical point of
view. Among them was academic musician Ljuben Dimkaroski, who recently passed away
(1952-2016). His indings and achievements are exceptional. He manufactured a series of
lutes made from wood and bone in order to conduct musical experiments. With the help
of Ivan Turk, he made a replica of the reconstructed Divje Babe lute out of the femur of
a young cave bear. Dimkaroski's musical research into the lute suggests that we are dealing
with an extremely eicient musical instrument. The reconstructed musical instrument is
capable of performing legato, staccato, double- and triple-tonguing, lutter-tonguing, glissando, chromatics, trills, broken chords, interval leaps and melodic successions from the
lowest to the highest tones. It can achieve the range of three and a half octaves.
We will present technical characteristics of the instrument and the technique of playing.
Theoretical introduction will be followed by practical demonstration.

Zgodnje akustične raziskave in poskusi na mousterienski
koščeni piščali iz Divjih bab I
Early Acoustic Research and Experiments with
Mousterian Bone Flute from Divje Babe I
The paper presents the early acoustic research and experiments with reconstructions of
the suspected bone lute from Divje Babe I. This research attempted to answer the basic
acoustic question related to any instrument: how to stimulate sound in it, why and how the
instrument is able to sound. The shape of the bone ind, as well as the holes in it provide
possibilities for stimulating and changing the sound. Early experiments demonstrated that
it is possible to stimulate sound in various ways with such a bone with holes. Determining
accurately the fundamental frequency (the pitch of the fundamental tone) and tonal range
of the suspected lute was of secondary importance in the early research, because the exact
length of the instrument, the number of holes in it, and the way of playing were unknown.
All these decisively inluence the tonal possibilities of an instrument. Acoustic and sound
experiments lead to the interpretation of the ind as a possible sound or signal aid, perhaps
even as a musical instrument with speciic expressive power.

Practical Presentation of How Divje Babe Flute
Could Be Made
Results of experimental puncturing of recent juvenile bear femurs using metal casts of
teeth of the cave bear, hyena and wolf does not support carnivore origin of the holes on
the Divje Babe lute. The key inding of these experiments is that it is practically impossible for any mighty beast, such as bear, to make two or more holes into a diaphysis without
breaking it. Additionally, the holes do not correspond to holes made by carnivors. Holes
on the lute are also diferent from holes on Upper Palaeolithic lutes, where techniques of
manufacturing (screwing, chiselling, and grinding) are clearly visible.
The answer to the question, how the Neanderthal could have made such holes in the bone,
was brought by experimental archaeology (experiments conducted by Giuliano Bastiani
and Zoltan Horusitzky). Pointed stone tools and bone tools with a blunt point were found
in the Divje Babe cave Mousterian layers. Using the technique of chiselling and puncturing with these tools, we can make exact the same holes as the ones that appear on the
Divje Babe lute. A shallow indentation is carved into bone with a pointed stone tool, used
as a chisel. The compact bone is pierced on the spot of indentation using the bone piercing
tool and a wooden mallet. The important inding of this experiment was that this method
usually left no visible tool marks around the holes.
The procedure of piercing the bone and fabrication of the lute with replicas of Divje
Babe Mousterian tools will be practically presented on brown bear bone.

Potočka zijavka in Divje babe I na Slovenskem
Cuts and Holes in Bones
(Potočka Zijavka and Divje Babe I, Slovenia)
The shortest possible deinition of science, given to students by the famous Nobel Prize
winning physicist of the mid-20th century, Richard Feynman, challenges the notions of
some scientists in the case of the perforated bone from the Middle Palaeolithic cave site
Divje Babe I, Slovenia.
In order to challenge the experimental results (not interpretation) that were obtained by
Ivan Turk and his colleagues in the case of the perforated bone from Divje Babe I., they
seem to neglect natural phenomena. The observation of animal behavior in their natural
environment, for example, supports the experimental results of Ivan Turk.
A collection of 35,000 years old bone artefacts from the Slovenian cave site Potočka Zijavka provides a good insight into the process of bone carving and bone perforation. With the
very same techniques the perforated bone, a musical instrument from Divje Babe I, was
manipulated by the Neandertals some 60,000 years ago.

Globular Clay Flute of Macedonia: A Prehistoric
Musical Instrument
An archaeological ind from 1989 in the Neolithic settlement site Mramor-Chaska near
Veles, Macedonia, raised interest in its musical capacities and the research that followed
gave much needed impetus for the development of music archaeology, a discipline with
global relevance, in the Republic of Macedonia. The organological approach, combined
with other disciplinary approaches, conirmed that the estimated 6000 years old ind indeed is a unique sound-producing device, related to zoomorphic oval clay instruments with
hollow interior functioning as a sound chamber. It is particularly important that this prehistoric ind is well preserved and in a playable condition. This paper presents the author's
research results, including range, frequencies, possible tone series etc. and is supplemented
by his demonstration of playing. His argumentation supports the debated hypothesis that
this archaeological ind is indeed a musical instrument.
During the ongoing debate, beginning soon after the discovery of perforated bone in 1995,
the decoding of human genome revolutionized the understanding of human evolution

Stone Age Drums in the Heart of Europe
In the paper I shall present the archaeological inds of Late Neolithic (or Eneolithic) ceramic drums in the Czech Republic and my considerations on their role in the past societies.
The process of their production and practical function (acoustic properties) has been researched through experiments. Their possible social meaning, symbolic signiicance and style
are considered with regard to the other drums from Central Europe and to other potential
forms of drums and percussions.
Basso Sounds in the Younger Stone Age?
Researching the Musical Auditory Habits in the
Middle Danube’s Neolithic
If we ask the question on musical auditory habits of man during the Neolithic Age, we
have to investigate excavated musical instruments of this period. My studies took place in
the regions of Eastern Austria, Western Hungary, the Czech Republic, Western Slovakia
and Slovenia. Ranges of sounds, sound level measuring and ranges of reach were carried
out with originals and reconstructed vessel lutes of the earliest Linear Pottery Culture in
Lower Austria, clay rattles of the Bükk-Culture in Slovakia, sounding terra cotta – preforms of bells – from the Lengyel, the oldest known clay horn (Lengyel V- Ludanice Group, Hungary), drums of burned clay from the Funnel Beaker culture, conches of the Badener (Pecel) culture, whistles and an ocarina from the Jevišovice culture, clay rattles from
the Ljubljana moor (palaitte culture - Vučedol-Laibach), further whistles and a panpipes
made of bones from the Corded Ware Culture and vessels with rattle feet from the Bell
Beaker Culture.
Room acoustics were done in reconstructed Neolithic buildings to gain information about
the acoustics of the surroundings where music might have been performed.

Plesalci iz jame Addaura na Siciliji
Dancers in the Addaura Cave, Sicily
The Addaura cave is a complex of three natural grottoes located on the northeast side of
Mount Pellegrino in Palermo, Sicily. It was discovered just after the Second World War, following the accidental detonation of wartime munitions stored in other caves, nearby. The
importance of the complex is due to the presence of cave-wall engravings dated to the late
Epigravettian and the Mesolithic. In one of the grottoes a vast and rich complex of carvings depicting men and animals was found. Amid a large group of bovids, wild horses and
deer, there is a scene dominated by the presence of human igures: a group of characters,
arranged in a circle, surrounding two central igures with their heads covered and their bodies strongly arched back. The most conlicting hypotheses have been put forward on the
question of the identity of these two characters and the signiicance of their position inside
the group. Some elements could suggest the presence of a group of dancers: we don’t know
if it is a ritual dance but the “hat” could be an important hint. The Addaura cave is also
very important because it is the only case, in this period, in which humans are represented.
Glasba in ples v stenski umetnosti osrednje Indije
Music and Dance in the Rock Art of Central India
Music and dance are practiced in cultures all over the world. That does not mean that they
must play a signiicant part in visual art, i.e. in representations, which depend upon diverse
cultural beliefs and practices. For example, we know very few examples in European Paleolithic cave art, such as one of the “Sorcerers” engraved in the Trois-Frères cave, seemingly
playing a nose lute. On the other hand, as we are going to see, such images are particularly
abundant in Central Indian rock art from the Mesolithic onwards and particularly in the
recent periods which we have been studying.
We have found representations of drums, harps, pipes and cymbals in rock art sites, all in
Madhya Pradesh where we did most of our work. None of them can be ascribed to the
Mesolithic. They all belong to more recent periods (Neolithic and Historic).
Representations of people dancing are particularly numerous in Central Indian rock art.
The dancers are most often in a row, but sometimes they may be in a group (organized or
not), or even alone or just two. They belong to Mesolithic to late Historic times.
Out of the 82 painted shelters with dance scenes in the two states of Central India where
we have been working, we have found many rows of dancers painted in 49 diferent shelters, 8 in Chhattisgarh and the others (41) in Madhya Pradesh. Occasionally, there are
several rows on the same panel or in the same shelter. For example, in Singar Pathar
(Chhattisgarh), we saw four diferent rows of dancers. The irst one includes at least 35 yellow dancers with bent knees facing right and arms half raised, with above them two bigger
ones facing left and ive red ones facing right. We ind representations of people dancing in
a group in 18 shelters (16 in Madhya Pradesh and 2 in Chhattisgarh). Isolated dancers are
rare (six in all). Three are duets.
A Mesolithic scene represents ten to twelve dancers with big complex headgear and body
ornaments. Some of the dancers had an open mouth, i.e. they were singing while dancing!
Traditional music and dance are an integral part of tribal life. They may take diferent
forms according to the various communities and to the innumerable occasions on which
they are performed. We shall mention a few that have been represented or have close links
with the rock art.

Presumable Stone Age Lithophones in Thailand
In the central plain of Thailand in several old temple complexes so-called ”stone bells“
can be found. They show a hole bored in one end of a huge lat piece of rock. Depending
on the part that is beaten, they give various sounds, difering in pitch, clearness as well as
loudness.
Sometimes a single piece is hanging on a thick rope or a metal chain in a wooden frame,
sometimes up to 5 pieces are lying somewhere around on the loor. The longest piece (240
cm) I found so far is in the famous temple of Nakhon Pathom, used as a bench for visitors
in one of the gardens. The monks I have asked said that the pieces date back to the gloomy
Dvaravati-period that lourished from the 5th -11th century AD, and may have started in the
irst centuries BC, without any precise chronology so far (see Andrew Barram). Very likely
the “stone bells” are relicts from the Stone Age.
The facts for this presumption will be discussed. A survey will be given of how many stones
have been found in which areas and brought to which temples.

People and Their Sound Tools in Stone-Age
Scandinavia: Music-Archaeological Fact and
Fiction
My paper addresses both the actual and imagined Stone-Age sound instruments related to
Scandinavia which are used in the exhibition Archæomusica.
Music Archaeology has an exclusive capacity as a tool in the Third Mission of Academia,
that is, to present research results to the general public in a way which brings them to life in that it involves source material which can sound!
The exhibition Archæomusica and its satellite programmes are excellent examples of Public outreach which adopt an approach utilizing both fact and iction. I have myself created two concert programs for Archæomusica one of which is called Prehistoric Soundscapes – and this can primarily be categorized as iction.
Furthermore, I am responsible in Archaeomusica for the Exploratorium which ofers 60
diferent hands-on sound instruments, a selection of which is used in the above-mentioned
Prehistoric Soundscapes. All the hands-on objects are type models on the basis of three
categories of instruments: (1) actual inds from prehistoric and medieval times, (2) actual
traditional sound instruments, and (3) ictitious sound tools, which, based upon scientiic
evidence are likely to have been used in ancient times.

Interpreting Archaeological Finds of Enigmatic
Tubular Bones as Sound Instruments: Possibilities
and Pitfalls
Those tubular bones from the Stone Age that possess a neatly arranged row of inger holes
are easily recognized as lutes by our modern eyes, even when, being incomplete, they lack
an element like a window or an edge that can be blown in order to produce sound. Eagerly,
sometimes too eagerly, one man-made hole is interpreted as an acoustical element too, but
if in our eyes incongruously arranged holes, no holes or no obvious sounding elements are
present, these bone tubes are mostly put aside from further investigation as "non-lutes",
called "enigmatic" or assigned other functions. However, when keeping in mind the diversity of wind instrument elements man has developed through the ages, scrutinizing
enigmatic bone tubes can yield previously unthought of sounding possibilities that would
be a pity to miss. Hypotheses pertaining to the organological type of the "enigmatic tubes"
are an incentive for further investigation, valuable even if proven unfruitful, and can enrich
our image of the soundscapes of cultures long gone. In this paper we will present a few
Mesolithic and Neolithic inds from the Netherlands, Sweden and Finland that illustrate
this assumption. The paper reports the results of the Singing Bone Workshop on Experimental Music Archaeology that was organized in November 2014 at the University of
Helsinki in tandem with the European Music Archaeology Project.

The Conch Shell as a Musical Instrument in
Neolithic Malta: Organology, Role in Society, and
Performance Contexts
This paper attempts to shed light on the possible existence of music activity in Neolithic
Malta (5200 BC-700 BC) by focusing on a conch shell discovered at the Brochtorf Circle
in Xaghra, Gozo. Archaeologists have speculated on the possibility that this shell served
as a sound producer but no studies have been attempted to substantiate this speculation.
This paper presents a study on replicas of this shell. The study consists of an analysis of
the performance practices and the sonorous properties of this artefact. So as to support
the idea that conch shells were used as musical instruments in Neolithic Malta, the paper
presents comparative material found in contemporary societies of the Mediterranean. By
extension, this material is also used to substantiate hypotheses on the role of this instrument and its possible performances contexts in Neolithic Malta.
The paper is accompanied by a practical workshop in which you are invited to experiment
with type models on the theme "enigmatic tubes”.

Pregled zvočnih artefaktov z najdišč Bluf Shelter na planoti
Ozark v osrednjem delu ZDA
A Survey of Sound-Making Artifacts from Bluf
Shelter Sites in the Ozark Plateau Region of the
Central United States
In the 1920s and 1930s there were a number of bluf shelter sites excavated by professional
archaeologists across the Ozark Plateau region. Unfortunately collections from these excavations languished on the shelves of various museums for many years. However, recently
there has been renewed interest in studying these collections in order to better understand
the cultural history of the prehistoric peoples of the Ozarks. This revival of interest has
led to the rediscovery of a small sample of sound-makers all made from perishable materials that were preserved in some of the dryer bluf shelters. This paper will examine in
some detail the structure and cultural signiicance of some of these remarkable artifacts
including what is probably the oldest known example of a two-chambered Native American Flute.
Melodije pridodnosti: razmišljanja o pomenu uporabe

Future Melodies: Considering the Signiicance
and Application of the Earliest Melodic Wind
Instruments in the Contemporary World
There is more than just a sense that the contemporary world is in a new and volatile era.
Both ‘the past’ and ‘music’ have inarguably powerful potentials positioned uniquely within
current political and social practices. Whilst the discipline of archaeology is embracing
the creative turn in the humanities, music has always and continues to be quintessentially
creative.
This session will consider how the special relationship between these concepts of 1. THE
PAST and 2. MUSIC – subsuming sound and acoustics – can be used to beneit society,
for example the new signiicances they bring, and in applications with ‘the future’ in focus.
The material culture or ‘conch’ is the Palaeolithic ‘lute’ aka, pipe and proto-clarinet.
Presenters for this session have been invited to ofer their insights from diferent parts of a
chaîne opératoire – making instruments, making sounds, making music and beyond – in
order to consider the chain musicologically as a holistic and comprehensive practice. If this
practice is as signiicant to the cultural traditions and identities of its practitioners as it is to
writing of deep history, what else can be done with this power to beneit society?

Grifon Skin Dance
The privilege of academic views over those of non-western cultures, and indeed the non-academic public has long been recognised, and relates to colonialism, the dominance
of a western sensorium within museums, and relexive archaeologies. A more balanced
representation incorporates the academic material with the personal viewpoints of the
academic, the public and ethnographic reports. Considering the value of personal meaning-making, I discuss the construction of identity through cross-modal abstraction and
metaphor, in relation to Bateson's concept of double description. In practice, these ideas
are interpreted through a spontaneous poetic response to an improvised piece of music,
played on model instruments. This is presented as a method of incorporating non-academic interpretation into the discourse of music-archaeology.

The Ethical Swan: Experimenting with the
Heritage of an Upper-Palaeolithic ‘Flute’ and an
Archaeological site of Violence
This is a story about a swan-radius lute, a historical massacre and a natural spring. The
swan radius lute is based closely on an Upper-Palaeolithic artefact known as GK1 from
Geissenklösterle cave in Germany. It is playing a role in the heritage of the massacre which
took place at the Iron Age site of Sandby borg in Sweden dated towards the end of the
Roman Empire. The natural spring in the vicinity of Sandby borg has become the subject
of a piece of music scored for this lute played with a ney embouchure; a technique described irst by the late Friedrich Seeberger and developed recently by Anna Friederike Potengowski. The themes of reconciliation and contemplation are central to a larger ethical
criterion. This is one example of collaboration processes between artists and archaeologists
known as experimental heritage.

Kamenodobni instrumenti - sodobna glasba
Stone Age Instruments - Contemporary Music
What exactly does a perforated bone exclude? This presentation explores a range of creative solutions to music making that do not contradict archaeological evidence. Two inds are
used for expanding the envelope of practical approaches beyond those presented at the 9th
ISGMA Symposium in 2014: a vulture ulna from Isturitz with four holes and two inished
ends, and a vulture radius from Hohle Fels with at least ive inger holes and two broken
ends. Considering the diversity of living musical traditions, particularly those that attract
long apprenticeships, it asks what is brought by the ind, by the archaeologist, by the vulture,
by the maker, by the acoustic, by the audience, and by the player. This leads to a suggestion,
that the key power to beneit society, introducing Stone Age instruments to contemporary
music making, is in generating a sense of connection with unfamiliar cultures of the present.

Dance for Cajsa and Duet for Anna: An Overview

Music - a Duet for Swan Radii and a Quartet for
Swan Ulnae and Swan Radii
In 2016 at a conference in Sweden in honour of the music archaeologist Cajsa Lund, Frances Gill performed a piece for two swan radii and two swan ulnae that she had recorded
electroacoustically and which was performed together with acoustic material. It is called
‘Dance for Cajsa’. In correspondence with the lautist Anna Friederike Potengowski, Anna
invited Frances to write a duet for two almost identical reconstructions of GK1 made by
Friedrich Seeberger and Frances Gill respectively. The players of the duet employ a ‘ney’
embouchure as described irst by the late Friedrich Seeberger and developed recently by
Potengowski. In the quartet piece a ‘ney’ embouchure and a normative lute embouchure
(as in a Shakuhatchi) are employed. GK1 is an Upper-Palaeolithic swan radius artefact
from Geissenklösterle cave in Germany. We consider what the musical score can ofer in
the way of new data for research.

Sound Artifacts of the Vučedol Culture Museum
Bone Flutes in Georgia (15th-13th Century BC)
In this paper I would like to present a few possible sound artifacts exibited in the Vučedol
Culture Museum: clay rattle, vessel lute and a part of a bagpipe – as they are deined and
described by archeologists. Even though their importance for our history and culture is
considerable, they are almost completely neglected in (ethno)musicological literature. This
presentation aims to ill-in this gap and to encourage closer collaboration between archeologists and (ethno)musicologists.
Georgia is located at the crossroads of Asia and Europe. Archaeological and anthropological data prove that the territory of present-day Georgia has been inhabited by humans
since the earliest period of the Paleolithic era without a chronological break. The connection between Georgian and Sumerian, Hittite, Hurrian, and Urartian tribes has been
proven in various scholarly works.
The connection to ancient cultures is made clear by the archaeological musical instruments
discovered on the territory of Georgia, though the material has not yet been fully classiied
and researched.
Nowadays, the most ancient musical instruments known to us, discovered in the territory
of Georgia, are two bone lutes (salamuri): 1. Bone lute with three inger holes (characteristic of Western Georgia) from 14th-15th century BC, discovered in the Choloki settlement
of the Kobuleti municipality and 2. Rim lute made of swan bone with four inger holes
(characteristic of Eastern Georgia) from 14th-13th century BC, discovered in Mtskheta, at
the Samtavro cemetery, in 'the grave of the little shepherd'.
In this paper I review the musical and technical possibilities as well as prototypes of the
instruments preserved in Georgian culture up to the present.

Proučevanje devetih zvenečih kamnov iz vzhodne grobnice
Zhou v Hebiju na Kitajskem
Study on Nine Chime Stones From Eastern Zhou
Tomb in Hebi, China
Among many percussion instruments of Oriental origin used in musical performance, the
chime stone is one of the most interesting acoustically. According to the Chinese classical
text Zhou li (The ritual system of the Zhou; author (s) unknown, probably dating to the
3rd century BCE), bayin was a classiication system. Musical instruments were divided into
eight groups, according to the materials from which they were made. These musical instruments were used in both ritual and non-ritual courts. The chime stone (Chinese term磬
Qing), which I will introduce in this paper, belongs to the category of stone and it is a kind
of percussive lithophone which can be categorized into idiophones within the H-S system.
Between 2009 and 2010, a set of chime stones dating to the Spring and Autumn period
(c.770–476 BCE) of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (ca.770–221 BCE) was excavated at Hebi
Qixian Songzhuang in Henan province, China. Nine chime stones were found in the tomb
M4. The shape of chime stones during this period had gradually become uniied and
standardized. When nine chime stones are struck by mallet respectively, they can produce
a sound which constructs a tetrachord in pentatonic scale mode. They also had ritual
meaning when they were used in an ancient royal court. Due to the fact that there are neither previous nor current articles relating to chime stones from this tomb, it would seem,
therefore, that further investigation is needed in order to do systematic research on chime
stones including typology, sound archaeology as well as their social and political meanings
based upon the Li-yue (ritual music) cultural system. In this presentation, I will combine
my ieldwork with theoretical research to make an exhaustive study of these instruments,
including tone measurement, tonal analysis and so forth.

This paper presents results from a research - creation project based on the study of a collection of sonorous artefacts from the ceramic style called Tuza (1250 - 1550), elaborated by
pre-hispanic Pastos communities located in the Colombian Southwest. The research established a study on organological types, tuning, design, and morphoacoustics for this collection of artefacts, with the aim to uncover their functionality as tools for the development of
musical expressions. Without complete information of cultural or archaeological contexts,
the objects themselves have become main source to elaborated propositions about musical
attempts in these disappeared communities. Digital technologies for recording their sounds
and convey a creative experimentation, for performing spectrum analysis, and the use of
a multislice CT scanner, have demonstrated to be advantageous methods to reveal the
structure of these instruments, their functionality, and idiomatic sonorous contents. This
project put together technologies from two distant cultures, clay aerophones and electronic
devices, to compose digital pieces that allow the public to listen the sounds of these ancient
instruments, looking for understand the sound itself as cultural heritage, return to the
object its main function as an instrument for musical expression, and to encourage the recognition of the material production from these Latino American indigenous communities.

The Experimental Three-dimensionally Modelled
Reconstruction of the Baroque Flute: The Piece
from The Archeological Museum of Wrocław
This paper/poster focuses on an object from The Archeological Museum of Wroclaw
(The City Museum of Wroclaw). In the irst part of our paper, we would like to present
the way we identify it as a fragment from 18th century transverse lute, speciically its left
handed joint (or a corps de rechange). Researches on the history of instrument development helped us to choose model of transverse lute, which was potentially suitable for
the reconstruction. The second part of the presentation is about the experimental threedimensionally modelled reconstruction based on laser scanning and digital modelling,
which led to 3D printing. This method deinitely has promising perspectives. It may be an
intriguing solution for reconstructions of music-archaeological objects.

Rekonstrukcija tibije iz Ptuja na Slovenskem
Reconstruction of the Poetovio Tibia from Slovenia
Several tube fragments comprising large parts of two tibia pipes were excavated in the
territories of former Poetovio (modern Ptuj in Slovenia) in 1988. The instrument is dated
to the 2nd–3rd century AD and its construction is to a large extent similar to the other tibia
inds from the Roman imperial period. As it was the case in e. g. the Pompeii or Meroë
indings, the Poetovian pipes are made of bone and at least two thin metal sheets. Additionally, the Slovenian instrument is provided with several side-tubes. This enigmatic
organological feature has been numerously shown on iconographic representations, but so
far seldom testiied by archaeological evidence. A thorough music-archaeological examination of the Poetovio tibia including the use of dedicated software for auloi/tibiae reconstructions enables the reassembly of the instrument fragments according to our knowledge
on the ancient Graeco-Roman musical system. The reconstruction of the Poetovio tibia
undertaken within the framework of the European Music Arachaeology Project (EMAP)
forms an experimental attempt to get closer to the nature of this sophisticated musical
instrument from the past.
