Description

Spielbrett, "awalé"
Dan, Côte d’Ivoire
Ohne Sockel / without base
Holz. H 7 cm B 17 cm L 57 cm

Provenienz:
- Galerie Maria Wyss, Basel.
- Udo und Wally Horstmann, Zug.

Das Spiel ist unter diversen Namen und in unterschiedlichen Formen in ganz Afrika zu finden. Die Spielregeln dieses Unterhaltungs- und Geschicklichkeitsspieles für zwei Personen sind ebenso mannigfaltig wie die Ausarbeitung der Bretter.

Das Spielprinzip ist aber immer mathematischer Natur: Jeder der zwei Gegner hat eine gewisse Anzahl Spielsteine, die er von Schale zu Schale schiebt und dabei versucht, die Steine seines Gegenspielers „einzufangen“.
