Jamtown J002V Goat Hoof Rattles
Jamtown
Goat hoof shakers from Bolivia produces a big, dry sound. The agricultural communities of Bolivia depend on the goat as a main source of food for both dairy and meat. As their ancestors did before them, the villagers cleverly apply all available resources to their daily existence. The hooves of the goats are clipped from milking herds and are then boiled and strung together on a fabric band to create ankle and hand rattles (fabric colors and clasp/strap style will vary). Traditionally used as an ornament of dancers, a popular accompaniment to pan flute music, and to keep the beat in songs.
To play the rattles, hold in your hand and shake using short arm motions. Experiment to discover the unique characteristics of your rattles.
