Byzantine use of Battle Drums prior to the Crusades
editThe statement "In early medieval Europe, the use of the drum for military purposes did not begin until the crusades." is totally false. The Byzantine Primary Source, The History of Leo the Deacon, Book VI, Ch 13 mentions rolling drums being used to signal the onset of battle for the soldiers. There are also mentions in Byzantine Strategika and Taktika manuals of battle drums being used to denote marching cadence (and in one case, silencing them to frighten the enemy before the clash of swords). ~~ Ambarenya13 (talk) 03:17, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
