Needing To Know If This 19th C. Lakota Sioux Drum Is Authentic?

I was hoping you experts could tell if this is what it looks to be, a 19th Century Lakota Sioux Indian Buffalo Hide Dance Drum. Any Information would be Appreciated! Measures 14 inch Diameter and is 3 inches wide. All rawhide strung with a Sinew Gut string across the middle on one side with glass beads in its middle. The bentwood portion of the Drum looks like it might have come off a Barrel cause the pointed overlaping end is fastened with a metal clasp as seen in Pictures. Looks well used and the age patina looks correct. Came with an old looking Tom Tom hand cut Cedarwood handle with tied cloth head. Thank You for your Reply! Gary K

fer sure it is.....

 

..."native style"...

 

The Sioux did use double sided hand drums, But yours does not show much wear that would indicate significant age.

It closely resembles other drums attributed to the Tarahumara (Raramuri) of northern Mexico, particularly with the use of the bead snare on one side -

This one at the Smithsonian shows only one side, but you can see one of the pegs that would have secured the snare -





The Tarahumara would typically use goat skin for the drum heads, (which the Sioux would not). If you have a magnifier, you might be able to see if the follicle pattern matches that of goat -
