Veni, Vidi, Ludi

If you needed any evidence that board games have a long history....

Here you will find descriptions and images of game boards and playing stones for nine Roman board games. Directions for playing each game also are provided. Kowalski describes the context in which each game was played and notes which games were the favorites of regular folks and famous Romans, such as the Roman emperor Augustus.
