an early board game in which players moved their counter around the squares??????
Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Have you investigated the Egyptian sites Bob Pursley gave you this morning? I listed them for someone else on that site.
Now, are you STILL referring to Egypt? I only ask because other countries also had board games where they moved counters around squares!
Each time you post, don't assume your other posts have been read, so clarify as best you can each time.
That might be Parchesi, or it might be Monopoly
Sorry for not including this, but I belive it starts with an "s"
Check this site.

The ancient Egyptian board game you might be referring to is called Senet. Senet is one of the oldest known board games in the world. In this game, players would move their counters or pieces around the squares of a rectangular board. The objective was to be the first to move all of one's pieces off the board.
To find out more about Senet and how to play it, you can visit the website provided: http://www.ancientegypt.co.uk/life/activity/main.html. This website has information on various aspects of ancient Egyptian life, including their recreational activities like board games.
