Researchers have come up with many games played by the Romans. There were various Board Games such as Tali which is also called knucklebones and another called Tropa, in which the bone or die was tossed into a narrow-necked glass (scores were added up). Of course, there was standard dice or Tesserae. There were many varieties of ball games with different types of balls with any number of players. The game of trigon, for example, used only three players while there were other ball games that required a larger circle of players. Expulsim ludere or handball was very popular as well as a Roman version of the Greek ourania or sky-ball. Some historians believe that the Romans played a version of Field Hockey that they picked up from the Egyptians.
