oliphants (<lip-vibrated aerophones with conical bore: natural>, <lip-vibrated aerophones with conical bore>, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Medieval end-blown ivory aerophones made from elephants' tusks, finely carved and prized by the wealthy classes mainly as tokens of land tenure or by churches as reliquaries, rather than as sound devices. |

Additional Notes: |
|
Chinese (traditional) ..... 中古世紀時,(指笛)管端有開口以供吹奏的象牙製管樂器,是由大象的長牙所製作而成的,精細地雕刻並且深受富有人士的珍愛,主要是做為土地擁有權的標示,或者是教會用來做為聖骨盒/聖物箱之用途,而非用做聲音裝置。 |
Dutch ..... Blaasinstrumenten gemaakt van de slagtand van een olifant, delicaat gegraveerd en bespeeld aan het uiteinde. Eerder een teken van beschikkingsrecht door rijken of als kerkelijk relikwie dan geluidsmiddel; Middeleeuwen. |
German ..... Mittelalterliches endgeblasenes Aerofon, aus Elefantenstoßzahn gefertigt und fein geschnitzt; von wohlhabenden Kreisen hauptsächlich als Symbol für Grundbesitz oder von Kirchen als Reliquie geschätzt, weniger als Musikinstrument eingesetzt. |
Spanish ..... Aerófonos medievales de marfil, soplados por un extremo, hechos de colmillos de elefantes, exquisitamente tallados y atesorados por las clases acomodadas principalmente como símbolos de tenencia de la tierra o por las iglesias como reliquias, antes que por su calidad de artefactos sonoros. |
