We see a curved-prow boat with two hunters standing on the boat, raising javelins in their hands over their heads as if they are going to throw them. Under the boat there are two deer with large antlers, one with a slender belly and the other with a big belly, probably manifesting the male and female deer.<br/><br/> They are tensing their legs to run away. In front of them is a hunting dog, with a slender belly and long muzzle, which is trying to prevent the deer from running away.

The drum was accidentally discovered in 1893 in Ha Nam Province, southeast of Hanoi.<br/><br/> In contrast to most other drums of the Dong Son, the tympanum bears three concentric panels, which depict animals or humans, interleaved with bands of geometric or circular patterns. The innermost panel appears to be a self-referencing depiction, as it is decorated with pictures of humans who appear to be performing a ceremony involving the drums themselves. Other musical instruments and rice growing and harvesting activities are also shown. The two outer panels are decorated with scenes of deer, hornbills and crane egrets.
