The wood block may be the oldest musical instrument known to man given that it would have been possible for any civilization to have constructed and played this idiophonic instrument even before the Bronze Age. Even certain primate species from the animal world have been witnessed to beat on hollowed wooden logs similar to it. East Asian music uses a variety of wood blocks ranging from small hand-held instruments to enormous temple blocks which may be sounded by swinging a large log against them.
