I’d like to know how the rules Dr. Finkel derived compare to the rules of the game that is still played

This was a master class. I would have been thrilled as a student to have the opportunity to have asked him a lot of questions.

Great game. I play it often and even have a board tattooed on my arm.

This was a wonderful presentation, I laughed the whole way through. My teenage son watched with me, laughed as well and agrees that we must try the Royal Game of Ur.

He gets wonderfully exercised about this game; I must give chess a rest and try it.

This is incredible work. Fascinating. In cryptography, we have what's called a "known plaintext attack". In ancient language decipherment it seems like those are usually the king's names!

A cast in southern india called ezava is believed that they migrated from a land called ezam or elam. The Dravidian language is verry similar to ancient elemite.

Elamite was declared to be Tamil, or at least a Dravidian language, BEFORE it had been deciphered. The Ezhavas usually say they came from Sri Lanka. The mythical homeland of the Tamils is usually claimed to have been a now sunken continent in the Indian Ocean.
