From Wikipedia
A tabor, tabour, tabret (Welsh: Tabwrdd), tambour de Provence, Provençal tambourin or Catalan tamborí is a double-skinned portable drum, often with a gut snare on the batter head, typically played with a single stick in the right hand. It is often used to provide a rhythm to accompany a tune played simultaneously by the same player on a pipe. This combination is known as pipe and tabor.
The word "tabor" (formerly sometimes spelt "taber") is an English variant of the Persian word tabīr, meaning "drum"—cf. Catalan: tambor, French: tambour, Italian: tamburo
