 The Roman historian Diodorus Siculus noted, "Their trumpets are also of a peculiar and barbaric kind which produce a harsh, reverberating sound suitable to the confusion of battle."

The sound of the carnyx

 Musician John Kenny brings the music of the past alive playing a replica of the Deskford carnyx, an Iron Age war trumpet that dates from 80-200AD.

The real and replica carnyces were part of the Celts exhibition at the National Museum of Scotland in 2016. Find out more at https://www.nms.ac.uk/past-exhibition...
