Anasazi flute

The Anasazi flute is the name of a prehistoric end-blown flute replicated today from findings at a massive cave in Prayer Rock Valley in Arizona, United States by an archaeological expedition led by Earl H. Morris in 1931.

[3] It is similar in many respects to a Hopi flute, which has only five finger holes.

A detailed analysis using radiocarbon dating techniques was published in 2007.

The analysis included one item from a burial pit in the Broken Flute Cave.

While difficult to play in many respects, it has a rich, warm voice that can potentially span over three octaves.
