Several alternate spellings. A musical instrument of the Australian Aborigines, consisting of a long tube made from bamboo or a hollow sapling which is blown into to produce a resonant sound.

"Only the didgeridoo, the native hollow-log trumpet, could produce that galvanising noise." --S. H. COURTIER, Death in Dream Time iv. 38, 1959
