Eskimo hand drum rattle is a traditional percussion instruments from Inuit, Inupiat, Yup'ik, or other Alaska Native cultures in the Arctic regions.
These cultures are renowned for their frame drums (single-headed hand drums, often called qilaut or similar), made with a wooden or bone hoop stretched with animal skin (like seal or caribou hide). They are played by striking the rim or frame with a stick rather than the head directly, accompanying singing, dancing, and ceremonies like drum dances.
