MASSIVE 14TH C. INCA STONE GAME
MASSIVE 14TH C. INCA STONE GAME BOARD**Originally Listed At $7500**
Pre-Columbian, Peru and Ecuador, Inca Empire, ca. 1300 to 1500 CE. A stone game board in the form of a Chimu or Inca fortress depicting tiered structures as well as smaller quadrangular plots surrounding a central rectangle. Though the objective and name of the game are unclear, scholars have some general ideas on how and why the game was played. The game, known as tauva, chuke, or kima among its more popular names, was played in the high Andes regions to pass time and vie for crucial resources during the challenging wintery months. Playing the game involved casting carved-wooden ‘dice’ in a rapid manner to perhaps move game pieces from one end of the board to another, and winning the game by one or more players symbolically multiplied the resources and increased the spiritual favors of everyone in the community. While many game boards like this example have been observed to be made from wood, this stone board is one of extreme scarcity due to its size and state of preservation. Size: 25.625" L x 17.5" W x 5.25" H (65.1 cm x 44.4 cm x 13.3 cm)
