Mancala is a family of board games played around the world, sometimes called "sowing" games, or "count-and-capture" games, which describes the gameplay. The word mancala comes from the Arabic word naqala meaning literally "to move".
Nobody knows where were games originated. It is difficult to say precisely. There are different theories which have been difficult to prove, however. No written records have survived, if ever there was.
The family games of sowing and capture, known as Mancala, have been played over thousands of years. Even though there is no general agreement about where and who were the first to play these games, through the evidence collected has earned the right to be known as the traditional board game world’s oldest.
They were originally some kind of game? Mancala probably did not start as a game. What was its purpose? This is another mystery for everyone.
One theory is that mancala started as a record keeping system. Another theory is that mancala was originally associated with a ritual. One theory is that mancala started as a spring planting ritual
Game boards found at African temples and shrines suggest a different ritual associated with mancala. The game board represents the world and is laid east to west, in alignment with the rising and setting sun. The seeds or stones are the stars and the holes are the months of the year. Moving the seeds represents the gods moving through time and space and mancala predicts our fate.
