I will paraphrase the following :

"The most powerful and important Asante drum is the fọntọmfrọm. Agyeman-

Duah gathered that it originally was a single drum that came to Asante

after the Denkyira war of 1701 (Battle of Feyiase). It since developed into an ensemble of several

drums and bells." (J.S. Kaminski: Sound Barrage:

Threshold to Asante Sacred Experience through Music)
