Trick-track
This game has been known since ancient times! In Europe, it was mainly played in the Mediterranean basin (also in Middle Eastern, North African, and Asia Minor countries).
It is a game designed for two players, where each player has 15 pawns that they must move along triangles called lines in this game. The winner is the one who removes all their pawns from the board first. Trick-track is now a national game of Georgians, Armenians, Arabs, and Turks. The English name of this game - backgammon - originates from the 17th century and most likely comes from the word gamen meaning game: back game. It is also said that backgammon got its name because trick-track was often placed at the back of the chessboard (English: back).
