    Aztec Xochipilli Death Whistle Black Onyx God of Ecstasy Art & Music
    This Death Whistle is based on an ancient Aztec design to make a haunting sound. They were found in many Aztec graves even clenched in the deceased’s hands.
    There is no one sound a Death Whistle makes.  The original ones made by the Early South American cultures ranged from just wind to moans, screams and shrieks.  They were made of clay by hand and varied greatly. They did not call them Death Whistles in Aztec it translated closer to Wind Whistle. Some popular YouTube videos are of Death Whistles that sound like mostly wind with a horrible shriek.
    These have a sound similar to that.  When you blow lightly you get a sound like wind in a cave. But when you blow hard you get the sound of rushing wind with a blood curdling shrieking scream in it. If you cup the bell in your hands open and close them while varying how hard you blow you can put down the soundtrack to your worst nightmare.
    This one is done from a 3D scan of a stone carving of
    Xochipilli
    in the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City.  These are like nothing I have ever 3D printed before. As they take shape the cooling fan blows into forming whistle and creates a rhythmic breathing sound. It feels as though each one takes on a life of its own.
    They even develop a voice of their own. Each one has it's own sound.
    These can get very Loud. Watch out I have even made my ears ring.
    Our Death Whistles are printed on top of the line 3D printers using the best PLA available at high resolutions. That is why ours look better than the other listings you see. A great novelty and conversation piece.

    What is PLA?        Polylactic acid or polylactide is a thermoplastic aliphatic polyester derived from renewable biomass, typically from fermented plant starch, such as from corn, cassava, sugarcane or sugar beet pulp. In 2010, PLA had the second highest consumption volume of any bioplastic of the world.       -Wikipedia
