A kebero is a double-headed, conical hand drum used in the traditional music of Eritrea,Sudan and Ethiopia. A piece of animal hide is stretched over each end, thus forming a membranophone. A large version of the instrument is also used in Orthodox Christian liturgical music, while smaller versions are used in secular celebrations.[1]
