HBO\'s "Rome" to present more realistic look at the
Quote:Narukami-


I haven't seen the episode yet so I cannot speak as to how authentic it was, but the Romans did play a variety of board games. Here is a link to a page with quite a few including descriptions:

Roman Board Games

-Severus

Greetings Severus,

Great Link!

Just what I was looking for -- many thanks! Big Grin

Not certain which game they were playing in the episode but it looked like Petteia, though perhaps it was something else.

Point to you sir and thanks again.

:wink:
