Research Paper On Mancala

My favorite board game growing up is Mancala. Mancala is a wooden board game with gemstone created as an Asian and African game originally played with stones or seeds. Each side of the board game has 12 small cups and one large cup on each end. Each small cup gets four stones and whoever goes first must try to get there stones in the large cup at either end of the board. The number of stones in the small cups could build up to much more as each player has a turn. If you drop your stones in the large cup either end of the board you get another go, if it lands in one of the small cups on either side of the board then it's no longer your ago at the finish placing all your stones in each cup. I think this is an excellent game for math strategy
