Origin

[edit]
Introduced from India in the 13th century, the name is derived from Sanskrit.

The Japanese article, ja:鼓, seems to mention that it was derived from larger drums that were inspired by the janggu of Korea.
According to janggu, the janggu was based on a smaller drum called the yogo, and the yogo seems to have an Indian origin. However, it would be unfair to say that the tsuzumi was introduced directly from India if it's only indirectly based on the janggu/yogo/indian drum.
You might say that I shouldn't be using Wikipedia as a primary source, but this is an inconsistency that needs to be addressed, IMHO. --Kjoonlee 03:59, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is supposed to be the beauty of WikiPedia, that anyone can edit. If someone has more correct information, they should by all means help by editting. I think the more links to other pages and articles on WikiPedia the better. I think it is interesting to follow the lineage of the instruments in Japan. It is important to show where Japanese folk music got its influence. Kogejoe (talk) 16:39, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
