AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

古代ローマの六面の牛骨ダイスで、俗に「テッセラ」と呼ばれる。面の数字は円と点の彫刻で刻まれている。エッジにはいくつかの不規則さがあり、わずかな欠けや使用・経年に伴う磨耗が見られる。面によって彫刻がよりはっきりしているものもあれば、擦り減っているものもある。牛骨には孔食と変色が生じている。

ローマの遊戯には、サイコロだけを用いたり、盤と駒と組み合わせて、出た目の運に従って動かすゲームが含まれていた。賭博と遊戯は12月のサートゥルヌリア祭の間だけ合法的な娯楽だった一方で、年間を通じて多くのローマ人がこの活動に興じていた。旅をする兵士が地元の酒場で、裕福なエリート層や支配層に至るまで、ローマ人はサイコロ遊びの熱心なファンだった。

Measurements (approx.): L 0.9cm, W 1cm, H 1cm

Provenance: Ex. collection of an Essex gentleman.
