Definisi:
1) to beat the drum or timbrel
2) to torture with the tympanum, an instrument of punishment
The tympanum seems to have been a wheel shaped instrument of torture,
over which criminals were stretched as though they were skins and then
horribly beaten with clubs or thongs (cf our "break upon the wheel")
