Disgrifiad

This game board was found at Nevern Castle, Pembrokeshire, during archaeological digs 2008-2018 led by Dr Chris Caple of Durham University. The Casle was occupied only in the 12th century.

Nine Men's Morris is played by moving pebbles on a marked board or slate. This game was popular in the 10th–13th centuries and it appears to have been played by all sections of society. Boards can be quickly scratched onto any available surface.

At Nevern we have recovered two complete and 10 partial Nine Men’s Morris boards.

This sample was found broken and damaged by fire, lying on the floor of the East Hall, probably lost as people fled the building when it was set alight in 1195.
