A fascinating video about the ancient ‚Royal Game of Ur‘. This is something I need to get and play. I have had a look at a few versions available online.

The ancient Sumerian dice make it possible to roll 0,1,2,3 & 4 with 2 being the most likely and zero and four being unlikely, having a 1/16 chance. Anyway… the video:
