    Where Did the World’s First Gambling Game Come From?

    JonathonBy JonathonApril 1, 2023Updated:April 4, 2023No Comments3 Mins Read

    Scientists believe that excitement is inherent in a person from his very birth. It is pleasant for a person to realize that he can get more by doing less. Thus, in ancient times, people began to play dice and cards. Such games on the streets and squares quickly grew into an entire gambling industry.

    Today in this article you will find out which gambling games appeared first and from where. Well, let’s get started.

    How Did Gambling Come About?

    It took a long time before dice were invented, but this would have happened since it was inconvenient to throw ordinary dice.

    Archaeologists have discovered the first playing dice dating back over 3000 years BC. It was a unique find proving the existence of gambling. Cubes with six faces were made of various materials – metal, wood, and bones.

    The territories of Iran and India are the places where the oldest bones were found. Experts are still arguing whether they were used for games since they were used in fortune-telling and to cast lots.

    Gambling spread rapidly around the world and captured more and more people. There are even historical expressions related to the gambling sphere. Thus, the Roman emperor Cornelius Tacitus said about the inhabitants of modern Germany that they could even start a war by losing at dice since they are the most gambling people.

    Prohibition of Gambling

    Naturally, problems soon appeared due to the spread of games. No religion accepted them and considered them a sin. The religious ban on gambling did not appear by chance, because they “drugged” people and forced them to do thoughtless things (like alcohol or drugs). At that time, even chess fell under the category of gambling, so it was also prohibited.

    In addition to churches, a negative attitude towards gambling was also manifested by residents of certain regions (tribes). Initially, historians believed that this was due to the lack of property and valuables, but over time they realized that some people simply did not see interest in this.

    Today, the ban on gambling is also in effect, only it is already accompanied by laws and prison terms.

    Formation of Familiar Gambling Games

    And it was only in the 16th century that variants of the familiar table gambling games with the use of cards or a playing table began to appear. And a couple of centuries later, in the 19th century, the first slot machine appeared, which changed the entire gambling industry.

    Also in the 18th and 19th centuries, casinos began to open all over the world. And the gambling world has become similar to what it is now. But the main breakthrough occurred in the 21st century when gambling became available online.

    Results

    Thus, we can say that gambling is becoming more and more complicated every time new rules and interesting opportunities are being acquired. Just imagine how far the gambling industry has come from dice to online casinos with live dealers. It’s just unbelievable.

    Thus, we can say for sure that excitement has always been in a person. However, it is worth remembering about self-control and controlling your excitement, otherwise, it is very easy to become addicted to gambling.
