Geographically, the traditional distribution of the DJEMBE drum is associated with the Mali Empire and includes parts of modern-day countries Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Gambia, and Senegal. According to the Bambara people in Mali, DJEMBE / JEMBE translates to "everyone come together in peace" and defines the drum's purpose.
The Djembe is a handmade instrument carved from hardwood such as Mahogany or Tweneboa and covered with mostly goat or cow skin. The belief is that the Djembe drum contains three spirits of the tree from which it was made, the spirit of the animal skin, and the spirit of the carver.
