===Buben=== {{main article|Bubon}} [[File:Ukr folk 05.jpg|thumb|Ukrainian bubon]] '''Buben''' ({{Lang|ru|Бубен}} in [[Russian language|Russian]], {{Lang|uk|Бубон}} in [[Ukrainian language|Ukrainian]], {{Lang|sl|boben}} in [[Slovenian language|Slovenian]], {{Lang|cs|buben}} in [[Czech language|Czech]],<ref>{{Citation |last= |first= |title=buben |date= |url=https://www.wordreference.com/czen/buben |work=word reference |language=en |access-date=6 February 2023}}</ref> {{Lang|pl|bęben}} in [[Polish language|Polish]]) is a [[musical instrument]] of the [[Percussion instrument|percussion family]] similar to a tambourine. A buben consists of a wooden or metal hoop with a tight membrane stretched over one of its sides (some bubens have no membrane at all). Certain kinds of bubens are equipped with clanking metal rings, plates, [[cymbal]]s, or little bells. It is held in the hand and can be played in numerous ways, from stroking or shaking the jingles to striking it sharply with hand. It is used for rhythmical [[accompaniment]] during dances, soloist or choral singing. Buben is often used by some folk and professional bands, as well as orchestras. The name is related to [[Greek language]] {{Lang|el|βόμβος}} ('low and hollow sound') and {{Lang|el|βομβύλη}} ('a breed of bees') and related to [[Indo-Aryan languages|Indo-Aryan]] {{Lang|inc|bambharas}} ('bee') and [[English language|English]] ''bee''. Buben is known to have existed in many countries since time immemorial, especially in the [[East]]. There are many kinds of bubens, including {{Lang|az-latn|def}}, ''[[daf]]'', or {{Lang|az-latn|qaval}} ([[Azerbaijan]]), {{Lang|hy-latn|daf}} or {{Lang|hy-latn|khaval}} ([[Armenia]]), {{Lang|ka-latn|daira}} ([[Georgia (country)|Georgia]]), {{Lang|uz|doira}} ([[Uzbekistan]] and [[Tajikistan]]), {{Lang|fa-latn|daire}} or {{Lang|fa-latn|def}} ([[Iran]]), {{Lang|ar-latn|bendeir}} ([[Arab]] countries), {{Lang|es|pandero}} ([[Spain]]). In [[Kievan Rus]], [[drum]]s and military [[timpani]] were referred to as ''buben''.[[File:Daf-isfahan.jpg|thumb|upright|left|An Iranian woman playing a frame drum, from a painting on the walls of [[Chehel Sotoun]] palace, [[Isfahan (city)|Isfahan]], 17th century, [[Iran]].]]
