Check out these fantastic Peruvian Shamanic Whistling Vessels!!
Jose Vitancio Umeres is an expert in pre-historic Peruvian wind/musical instruments. These are his reproductions of ancient originals. Being made out of clay archeologists first thought they were regular water bottles or a type of toy until an amateur anthropologist apparently proved their ritual use. One can also just blow into the vessel but when water is added in one of the chambers and the vessel is rocked back and forth the shifting air creates an interesting sound pattern. Depending on the construction different animal sounds can be imitated.
