"duodecim scripta" means "twelve lines"; two players sat across from each other and placed 15 black or white pieces (presumably stacked) on the first square on their side of the game board; each player tossed a set of three dice from a cup and moved their pieces according to the value of the throw; the object was to get all one's pieces across the board to the final square; if you landed on a square that had an opponent's piece already on it, that piece would return to (their) square one; if two or more opponent's pieces were already on the square, then it could not be occupied; this game has a great deal in common with modern Backgammon and with Egyptian Senet.
