In 2004, archeologists found an old game in the 5000 year old ancient Iranian city of Shahr-e Sukhteh which many people have called the oldest version of Backgammon ever found.

The board features an engraved serpent coiling around itself for 20 times, thus producing 20 slots for the game, instead of today’s 24 and there are 60 pieces instead of the current 30.
