dundubhi	Apparently an onomatopoetic word, means ‘ drum,’ as used in both war and peace. It is often mentioned from the Rigveda onwards. A special sort of drum was the earth drum,’ made by digging a hole in the ground and covering it with a hide. This was employed in the Mahāvrata, a rite performed at the winter solstice, for the purpose of driving away influences hostile to the return of the sun. A ‘ drum- beater’ is included in the list of sacrificial victims at the Purusamedha or ‘human sacrifice.’

bhūmidundubhi	‘Earth drum,’ denotes a pit covered with a hide used at the Mahāvrata rite, and mentioned in the Samhitās and the Brāhmaṇas.
