English: DEFI (tambourine)
The ancient Greek tympanon was known in Byzantium as the sstrum or plitha and in modern Greece as the defi or dakhans (Macedonia, Thrace). With or without cymbals (zilia) on its wooden frame, it gives rhythmic accompanimentto most of the melodic instruments played throughout Greece.
Το αρχαίο ελληνικό τύμπανον γίνεται στο Βυζάντιο σείστρον ή (τα) πληθία και στη νεότερη Ελλάδα ντέφι ή νταχαρές (Μακεδονία, Θράκη). Με ή χωρίς κύμβαλα (ζίλια) στον ξύλινο σκετελό του, συνοδεύει ρυθμικά τα περισσότερα μελωδικά όργανα.
