For many generations, the Jews of Yemen used on Rosh Hashanah the long spiral Shofars. Today, they are popular throughout the world and have become collectors’ items. The horns originate from the Kudu, a large antelope found in south or east Africa.
The Shofar figured prominently in the conquest of Jericho, the first city the Jewish People conquered when they entered Canaan, as Israel was called then, after forty years in the wilderness. Jericho was heavily fortified, surrounded by a thick wall on all sides. Every day, for six days, the Jewish army circled the city, headed by the Priests carrying the Holy Ark and rams' horns. On the seventh day, at the command of G-d, they circled seven times and when the Priests blew on the Shofars, the people uttered a great shout and the walls of the city crashed and sank, laying the whole city open to the jubilant Jews. (See Joshua, Chapter Six)
