Drum - Single HeadDjembe - Mandé StyleMali Wood, Animal Hide, Rope Height: 20 inches In history, the Mandinka of Manden became the Malinke of Mali. We often refer to them as the Mandé. Some say the name of the djembe came from the Bamana in Mali, who said "Anke dje, anke be" to call their people together. This saying translates as "everyone gather together" - "Dje" means gather and "be" means everyone.
