Hello everyone.

The "20 boxes" was a game quite similar to our territory conquest board games which inspired the creation of the senet.

It was called "twenty" or "twenty boxes" or also "aseb", a word probably of Babylonian origin.

We progressed by throwing either astragalus or tetrahedron-shaped dice.

It was necessary to move on the rows of boxes one after the other, avoiding the traps of certain boxes.

The positioning of the pawns gave points according to particular combinations.

Good day to you all. Good game ;)
