Kangling / Rkang-gling

 

 

 

Code : TT 227

Introduction :

Rkang-gling is a trumpet, made from a human femur in the past. The mouthpiece section is protected by a metal mount, while the pierced condyles which form the bell are covered in leather studded with turquoises and coral. Often held in left hand, while the right hand is used to shake the damaru, it is the attribute of Buddhist monks and hermits endowed with magic powers, capable of conjuring up hail or trance-induced flight, but its use is chiefly associated with funerary rites.

簡介：

Rkang-gling 是號角的一種，以前是用人類的股骨製成。吹口用金屬覆蓋保護，骨髁的部份用皮革覆蓋，鑲嵌着綠松石和珊瑚。通常用左手握着 rkang-gling，而用右手搖動 damaru演奏。Rkang-gling 被認為具有佛教僧侶和隱士的屬性，擁有法力，有魔法或誘導飛行的能力，但它主要的用途是與陪葬儀式相關連。
