Wood block
This article is about the musical instrument. See woodblock for other meanings of the term. A wood block is essentially a small piece of slit drum made from a single piece of wood and used as a percussion instrument. It is struck with a stick, making a characteristically percussive sound.East Asian musics use a variety of wood blocks ranging from small hand-held instruments to enormous (often immovable) temple blocks which may be sounded by swinging a large log against them.  Log drums made from hollowed logs, and slit drums made from bamboo, are used in Africa and the Pacific Islands.
