Fine conditionThe tradition of the Peruvian whistle, most notably vase whistles, is pre-Inca. It traces back to the Chimu and Mochica culture. The Incas used several hundred different forms of whistles, but all were based on the same sound emission system. The Indians of North America used and traded turquoise.
