  4. Freemasons played it on top of cathedrals being built • Carved very faintly on the base of the northern most column is a 'nine mens morris' board.

  5. Each of two players take turns placing a counter on any empty point. When all 18 counters have been used, players take turns moving one counter at each turn to the next empty point along a line. Jumping is not permitted. How to play

  6. Each player tries to make a row of three counters of the same color along any straight line. This is called a "mill". A player who makes a mill then can remove one of the opponent's counters from the board - if it is not part of an opponent's "mill". Goal: the « mill »

  7. Towards the end… • When there are no longer any counters on the board that are not part of a "mill", a player may then take a counter from an opponent's "mill". • Counters taken from the board cannot be used again in that game. • The loser is one who only has two counters on the board or is blocked from moving.
