The didgeridoo of Australia is arguably the oldest known musical instrument. The strongest evidence of this theory is based on its naturally occurring formation caused by termites eating the fleshy centers of the outback's plentiful eucalypti. When the termites have finished feasting they leave large hollow tubes waiting to be harvested by Australia's Aboriginal people. The tube is then cut at both ends forming one of the most ominous sounding wind instruments of the music world. It is believed by some to have spiritual meditative qualities, others assert the didge can heal certain ailments, while still others hold the opinion that it is a most entertaining way for babies named Zach and Amelia to spend the morning.
