This is an instrument that has deep religious significance. The Shofar, or Ram's Horn, is used by the Jews in their worship. In the past it was also used in battle. One such usage was in the famed battle of Jericho where God ordered the blast of the shofar prior to leveling the walls of the fortified city.
