To my knowledge, drums were used in music as early as the eighth century, in the form of a pair of wooden drums with metal rims.  The term "drum set" became more common by the mid-twentieth century, although the equipment had been used before this time.

That makes sense. They seem to be a bit big and cumbersome. I've been to drum circles, where they have just one drum and play while sitting.
