Singers accompany themselves on hand drums and on the Mi'kmaq ji'kmaqn, a split-ash rattle struck against the palm. In March 1890 Jesse Walter Fewkes recorded Passamaquoddy songs and tales on wax cylinders at Calais, Maine, the first ethnographic field recordings, now at the Library of Congress. The hand-drum and shaker cards stand in for the hand drum and the ji'kmaqn.",
