    This Roman gameboard and checkers, used to play a game called Ludus Latrunculorum, was discovered at Bearsden Roman fort in Glasgow. Although we don't fully understand the rules, the name means 'the game of robbers'. You can see it now in the Hunterian Museum at Glasgow University. #FindsFriday

    Even if you're not into tabletop games (or miniatures) you must admit that the #Blasphemous Board Game just announced by Ludus Magnus Studio is pretty awesome. It already reached a 500.000€ stretch goal in less than one day, which is absolutely bonkers. Check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxaR...

    Ludus duodecim scriptorium (XII scripta) is a Roman Empire era board game discovered at Ephesus. The ‘game of twelve marks’ has been viewed by some as the ancient predecessor of backgammon, and is mentioned in Ovid’s Ars Amatoria. 🏛 Ephesus Museum 🏺Ancientbluesky

    I've always thought some of Paul Hindemith's music sounded a little video game-y, so I made this 8-bit arrangement and performance of the 4th interlude from his Ludus Tonalis! Hope you enjoy it!

    Ludus means game. Homo Ludens, man the player. Latrunculorum is a diminutive form (unculus). So, "little robber or thief." Cognitive with the Spanish ladrón, thief or robber. Spanish train companions warned me of "ladrónes," pickpockets working the flameco shows in Granada.
