The resonator is a hemispherical calabash completely wrapped in skin. One top and one bottom skin. A semicircular recess in the rim of the bowl to accommodate the neck. A flattened, three-pronged spike end, which passes through the skin several times near the oval membrane opening at the rear edge of the body. The edge of the opening is reinforced by stitching. The upper strings are attached to leather strap windings. The strings made of twisted animal tissue are only fragmentary. A wide wooden bridge with five string guide notches. The base of the neck is wrapped in a piece of skin which is sewn to the membrane skin. Two strings of beads stretched between the base of the neck and the membrane opening, which are also laterally connected to the lower membrane lacing. A hole in the free end of the neck (probably for inserting a rattle device). "Stringed instrument of the singers in Ssuss." from Ulrich Wegner: Afrikanische Saiteninstrumente, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix object catalogue)
