The fact that these bones are able to produce a sound doesn't necessary means that they were
used as musical instruments before Shiva.
Here is a study about these bones chewed by hyenas.

Not just hyenas but many other carnivorous animals were very keen on sucking the nutritious bone marrow after an animal was killed.
Breaking the extremes of the bone was not enough to get the marrow out so they probably realized that by digging holes the bone marrow would come out easier.
This study seem rubbish but again we have seen monkeys breaking hard nuts with stones.
It also could well be that men created these producing sound instruments by pure chance and this is a more credible fact.
It is impossible to know considering the time gone by.
In any case it is unlikely that these primitive men understood the 7 notes.
We can produce sound even without the 7 notes by playing seashells or different things.
On the other there is a lot of history about Shiva and the 7 notes.![]()

The flutes have been examined in depth. They were created by humans and the holes deliberately and precisely placed. They have been played and recorded by professional flutists. These are easily accessible facts, but we know you won't take the time to examine them. You can mock all you want, it won't change the facts.
As I said in my previous post everything is possible.
I never completely discounted the fact that long before Shiva someone created an instrument
capable of producing sound.
What i believe is that Shiva is the first one to create music in a scientific way with the 7 notes.
By chances primitive people may have discovered that by blowing in an empty pipe a sound was coming out and by making some holes the sound was even better but from here to discovered the 7 notes there is a long long distance.
In my previous link it correctly say............ Suppose
people are making dissonant sounds in a particular rhythm – that certainly
will not be considered music............

I got a seashell that by blowing make a sound.
Shell i be called a musician?

Get real fuzz.
