Does anybody have the vaguest idea what this bellowing really sounds like?

Yes, I lived with it for two years in Erdogan’s Turkey. Ankara has a lot of ‘wild dog packs’, and they all chimed in at the first notes. Even better (and not well known) is what occurs during Ramadan. Two goobers walk down every street between 2 and 4 am with drums banging away to wake the people up for breakfast before sunrise. It’s based on tradition before people actually had alarm clocks, but there’s nothing quite like going back to the 9th century.

Certainly. From three mosques at the same time.

Several times a day.
