In ancient Egypt, as ever, where pitching stone was a favorite children’s game. But a
badly thrown rock could hurt a child. Looking for something less dangerous to throw, the

（藤）
made of pieces of animal skin sewed together and filled tightly with feathers or hay.

of rules. Perhaps they played ball more for instruction than for fun. Ball playing was
thought of mainly as a way to teach young men the speed and skill they would need for
war.
