I did not go the Metropolitan Museum of Art to find this out, however I did obtained this information from various YouTube videos and other on-line scientific articles.

3. Bullroarer 20,000 BP

2. Diatonic bone flute by Neanderthal caveman 60,000 BP

1. Claves* 200,000 BP

*They were not perfectly cylindrical, or were highly polished as the modern day mass produced kind are. However they were made from the same material that modern day Claves are made from ... believe it or not.
