The list is not complete, although the most important *bols* are probably there. Those of the right hand begin with dentals, those of the left with gutturals,¹ and those of both hands simultaneously with aspirated dentals. There are a variety of other ‘successive’ and ‘simultaneous’ strokes. A few of the ‘single’ *bols* are shown in the photographs of two drummers (at Mysore and Lahore) facing pp. 225, 227.
