Welcome to
the Mancala Website.
A set of features for you to browse and
search, as well as play and learn about Mancala. Many Historians believe that Mancala is the oldest game in the world. The word Mancala means "to transfer" in Arabic. That is exactly what you do; you transfer, or move, playing pieces from one bin to another.
Mancala represents the diversity of Africa. Mancala is played in nearly every African country. It is enjoyed by royalty and commoners, adults and children, in cities and villages of every size.
Mancala has lasted for so many years because each past and present culture has been able to enjoy it in it's own special way: as an important family game, a ceremonial right of passage, or a form of recreation among friends.
