Mancala board from Ivory Coast in the shape of a crocodile; measures approximately 25" tall; please refer to photographs for condition. Mancala is a cognitive board game, based on logics and mathematical combinatorics. Different variations of the game are played on four continents: Africa, Asia, South and North America. To this day, two hundred variations of mancala have been documented, and they differ from village to village, hose to house, sometimes even from person to person. Each local variation carries its own name, mancala being the term used by anthropologists in scientific and research papers, in order to signify a group of related board games with hollows.
Shipping is the responsibility of the purchaser. Upon request, our staff will provide the list of shippers who deliver to destinations within the United States and overseas. Some property that is sold at auction can be subject to laws governing export from the U.S., such as items that include material from some endangered species. Import restrictions from foreign countries are subject to these same governing laws. Granting of licensing for import or export of goods from local authorities is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Denial or delay of licensing will not constitute cancellation or delay in payment for the total purchase price of these lots.
