1997 Along with drums, rattles are the predominant percussion instrument used in shamanic and ceremonial contexts. Rattles appear in a variety of shapes and sizes, and are often finely carved or painted. Representations of rattles sometimes appear in art, particularly in the grasp of shamans, chiefs and dancers.
