Learn and play a traditional shagai (Anklebone) game. This game is an exercise of the traditional nomadic lifestyle and the respect and honor to the livestock.
Long Description:
A brief introduction highlighting the historical/ regional significance of the games will precede play. Shagai games are especially popular during the Mongolian summer holiday of Naadam. In shagai dice, the rolled shagai generally land on one of four sides: horse, camel, sheep or goat. A fifth side, cow, is possible on uneven ground. Mongolians still exchange shagai today as tokens of friendship. All 'dice" will be rolled by the Game Master with a dice tower on camera.
