There's more to it than too though, there are lots of different names for didgeridoo in Aboriginal languages/dialects across the Top End of Australia, and different styles of play and instrument types as well.
It depends on how the classification is done, what criteria are used etc. Yirdaki and mago are just generic words to denote 2 different types of didgeridoo.
It is thanks to ididjaustralia that i realised that there was a didgeridoo known as 'MAGO'. I always thought all didgeridoos were of the 'YIRDAKI' type.

Guan, from your own experience, how many types of didgeridoo have you discovered in Arnhem land so far?
