According to Laborde from Hebrew "nebel" [bag]; He describes the instrument as "a kind of recorder (of the Abyssinians), joined to a bag from which it receives the air"; According to Sachs, "Villoteau, being unfamiliar with the instrument, considers it to be identical with the Zuqqāra"; Villoteau's book contains, however, a plate that shows a bagpipe (which he defines as an "antique Oriental" [sic] Zouqqarah), and a thorough comparison between the instrument and a Hebrew bagpipe which he calls a Nable; Buchner, who mentions "the bagpipe nibiles", unfortunately fails to add any details whatsoever; Marcuse defines the instrument as a "side-blown trumpet of Ethiopia", referring to »Musik in Geschichte und Gegenwart« (Kassel/Basel, 1949) as her source, in which it doesn't occur, however, and therefore can't be found in the online version either; NB: ➺ Nibil.
