The oldest board game in history!

The oldest board game in history!
  • This board game was found in the necropolis
  • It is the oldest board game in human history
  • And the predecessor of the ancient Egyptian game called "Cent".

  • The game consists of a board and 12 pyramid-shaped blocks
  • And all of them are made of non grilled clay.

  • The table and its four legs were molded separately, and the pieces were dried
  • It was collected using fresh clay.
  • The roof was divided into 3 rows of six squares,
  • The net is made of small holes.
  • This game was placed in the grave similar to the found cents toys
  • In the tomb of Tutankhamun
  • The mural in the Nefertari Cemetery, in which the queen appears playing a cent.

  • The piece is considered the oldest in the series of table games
  • Because it dates back to the first Naqada era (4500-3500 BC),
  • It also reflects the sophisticated taste of critics in that abysmal period.

  • Royal Museum of Art and History, Brussels, Belgium
  • The oldest board game in history!
