The History of Dice
The prototype of dice was the ankle bone (astragalus) of the hind legs of cows and sheep,
and it is said to be frequently unearthed as grave goods from ancient ruins of the Indus Valley Civilization.
The roots of the standard six-sided die are said to be ancient Egypt and ancient India.
Dice in their current form were already in use before the Common Era.
Later, during the Nara period, they were introduced to Japan from China and came to be used as ritual implements for prayer.
From the Indus Valley Civilization, across an unimaginably long time and distance to the East...
The dice we casually hold in our hands today are, in fact, the product of a grand history.
