Best Answer

Many modern (Arabic) words have been applied incorrectlyto ancient Egyptian drums - these include dumbek, tar, darabuka and riq. The ancient Egyptians did not speak Arabic as modern Egyptians do, so the connection is misleading and false.

We do not have a record of the names used by the ancient Egyptians but we know that most of their drums were small and held in one hand while being beaten with the other. Larger drums like barrels were used in military contexts.
