The general museum of the central Quang Binh Province yesterday announced the discovery of a lithophone.
Farmer Pham Dinh Huyen was digging in his garden in Cu Nam Commune in the province’s Bo Trach District, when he found 20 unique rock pieces 2m below the surface. The rocks produced musical sounds when Huyen hit them with a hammer.
Several lithophone sets have been found in the northern-central Phu Yen Province and Central Highlands region.
