Welcome to our Jaques Backgammon Set section, where we offer
two above-average sets that have the potential to remain in your family for many years. Jaques is the oldest sports and games manufacturer in the world, making them a very good name in Backgammon sets. Backgammon is believed to have originated in Mesopotamia in the Persian empire or the present day Iran, Iraq, and Syria and it is the oldest known recorded game in history. The game was typically played on surfaces such as wood, using stones as markers, and dice made from bones, stones, wood or pottery and it can be traced back thousands of years BC to boardgames played by the Egyptians, Sumerians, Romans, and Persians.
