Very interesting, Brett. I have a model of a hopi flute that has five holes,
though it is rim blown. The five note pentatonic scale for the native american
flute is the same as the shak, and I have noted other correlations. The
anasazi also had a six hole rim blown flute with approx 2.35 octaves. Very
difficult to play, but worth the effort. I found the measurements on the web and made
a replica.
