By the 1950s, various Rasta drummers in Jamaica had developed a style of ritual music which they called "Nyabinghi drumming". It was influenced by various older Afro-Jamaican musical styles, including Burru drumming and the ritual drum styles found in religions such as Kumina and Revival Zion. The term "Nyabinghi" also came to be used to describe one of the oldest branches of Rastafari, known as the House of Nyabinghi.
