SEEGA Anubis Edition! ~ A Game from Ancient Egypt. Strategic Egyptian History Game. Glass Gems, Hand Made.
Seega, or Sija (سيجة), as it is pronounced in Arabic, is an ancient Egyptian game, whose origins are unclear. There are carved Seega boards on a few different Egyptian temples, dating all the way back to the 1300s BCE, but it is not clear if the boards have been carved at the time of the temple’s construction or later in history. Seega has been continuously played in Egypt since the ancient times until today and its rules are known.
This stunning recreation is carefully handmade by me and each one is carefully created here in my small studio in Portland, OR to ensure quality. The game comes with everything you need to play. You get the board as shown, playing pawns and the instructions for play. This amazing abstract game is strategic, easy to learn and fun to play!
Board measures 11x11 inches and is hand finished, complete with beautiful red and speckled black lacquered finish with hieroglyphics. Made of high quality birch wood with hand dropped glass pawns.
