Gourd: Wikipedia,
Gourds belong to the family Cucurbitace, particularly Cucurbita and Lagenaria. One of the earliest domesticated types of plants, subspecies of the bottle gourd, Lagenaria siceraria, have been discovered in archaeological sites dating from as early as 13,000 BC. Gourds have had numerous uses throughout history, including as tools, musical instruments, objects of art, film, and food.
