Tomb of Nakht, Egypt.
Dynasty XVIII 1450 B.C
According to the
great quantity of
musical instruments
found in the tombs,
music was a source of
pleasure and
relaxation for rich
Egyptians. The main
instrument was the
harp, followed by the
flute. In this
representation of a
painting in the tomb
of Nakht (an
astronomer of the God
Amun during the
kingdom of Amenhotep
III) we see a flute
player, A harp player
and a youth playing
the norva; the latter
one being close to
our banjo and made
out of a turtle
shell. The three
instrumentalists are
lightly dressed with
transparent clothes
and veils. They have
incense sticks over
the head to perfume
the body and hair.
