The word "cup" originates from the Old English term "cūppa," which is derived from the Latin word "cupa," meaning a container or vessel. This Latin term is related to the Greek word "kypellon," which also refers to a drinking vessel. Over time, the term evolved in various languages, ultimately leading to its modern usage in English to describe a small, typically cylindrical container for drinking.
The name od the game was Duodecim Scripta, which means "Twelve Lines." The board had 24 cases on 2 rows of 12 cases each. Two players sat across from each other and placed their 15 black or white pieces (presumably stacked) on the first square on their side of the board. They each tossed a set of three dice from a cup and moved their pieces according to the value of the throw. The pieces were like the lathed bone roundels. The pieces were distinguishable by the fact that they were often inscribed on the back with the owner's name or initials. The colours were bone-white, blue or black. Some red or yellow pieces have been found. The object was to get all your pieces across the board to the final square. If you landed on a square that had the opponent's piece on it, that piece would return square one.

A pearl. "And in the cup an union shall he throw richer than that which four successive kings in Denmark's crown hath worn." It's called an onion, but it's value shows that it is in fact a pearl.
Gertrude accidentally drinks from the poisoned cup, which Polonius had intended for Hamlet to drink from during his duel with Laertes. (In some productions, Gertrude knows that the cup is poisoned and drinks it anyway, to atone for her involvement in her husband's murder, or to save her son's life, or both.)
Hamlet stabs Claudius with a poisoned sword, but only the tip is poisonous and it is dubious whether Laertes' poisoned tip cuts the king as King Claudius cries out for help claiming he is only hurt. Hamlet then holds him down and forces him to drink the last of the poisoned wine that had been intended for Hamlet, but his mother, the queen, drank it and died. Laertes says the king "is justly served; It is a poison temper'd by himself. [the king]" Implying Laertes' poison didn't kill Claudius, Claudius's poison killed himself, just as Laertes was slain by his own posion from the sword. So, Hamlet kills Claudius by making him drink a cup of poisoned wine that Claudius had intended for Hamlet.
Gertrude, Hamlet's mother, accidentally drinks the poison. This happened because she was giving a toast to Hamlet after winning the fencing match against Laertes but not knowing that Claudius intended to make Hamlet drink from that cup if the plant to poison him from fencing fails.
In Shakespeare's "Hamlet," the union Claudius refers to is likely the poison he plans to add to the cup intended for Hamlet during the duel with Laertes. This poison serves as a deadly trick to ensure Hamlet's demise, representing Claudius's deceit and treachery. It is suggested that Claudius may not put the poison in the cup until after line 225, highlighting his manipulative nature and the unfolding tension of the scene. This act underscores the play's themes of betrayal and revenge.
Laertes cuts Hamlet by his poisined sowrd, but Hamlet takes the sowrd and kills lartes by it after Laertes confesses that King Claudius wanted that to happen and he is also the one that poisined the cup (that Gurtrude drank from and died).
