Abstract
Descriptions of ethnographic objects in the museum and private collections often offer a scarce information about their origin and meanings which the craftsmen ascribed to materials and drawings. This article aims to establish provenance of two drums leaning on shapes of the drumheads and handles and visual elements as analytical tools. Two drums, which are in the focus of this paper, were brought by the Finnish geologist J. J. Sederholm in 1917 from the expedition to Uriankhai (currently, the Tyva Republic in Russian Federation).
