Tabula (game)
Tabula (Byzantine Greek: τάβλι), meaning a plank or board, was a Greco-Roman board game for two players that has given its name to the tables family of games of which backgammon is a member. History According to the ''Etymologiae'' by Isidore of Seville, tabula was first invented by a Greek soldier of the Trojan War named Alea. The earliest description of "τάβλι" (tavli) is in an epigram of Byzantine emperor Zeno (r. 474–475; 476–491), given by Agathias of Myrine (6th century AD), who describes a game in which Zeno goes from a strong position to a very weak one after an unfortunate dice roll.. The rules of Tabula were reconstructed in the 19th century by Becq de Fouquières based upon this epigram..

Two players had 15 pieces each, and moved them in the same directionanticlockwisearound the board, according to the roll of three dice. ...
