Présentation
Pente Grammai, or 'Five Lines,' is a game known from Ancient Greek sources. Objects and graffiti have been found at Greek archaeological sites which come in the form of five parallel rows of lines, which have been identified as this game. Other versions appear that seem to have been doubled forms of the game. Other game boards in a 2x5 pattern that form square grids or rows of holes seem to be later versions of this game.
Règles de la source (anglais)
Five pieces per player. One six-sided die. Players move their pieces onto the board using the throws of the dice. A piece must be brought onto the board if it is possible. Pieces move in an anti-clockwise direction around the board. Only one piece may be placed on a point at a time, except for the central line, which is the 'sacred line.' The first person to collect all of their pieces on the sacred line by reaching it on the opponent's side of the board by an exact throw wins.
