A Game of Ancient Kings

Hounds and Jackals is an Egyptian board game dating back to around 2,000bce. Not much is known about the game itself aside from its popularity during the Middle Kingdom. The game features a total of ten pieces featuring either the heads of hounds or jackals moving around a grid of 58 holes.
