The Ur-Board Book

The UR-BOARD is a priceless treasure from ancient Sumer. Discovered in the ruins of the city of Ur where it had lain for 4.5 thousand years it pre-dates the Bible by centuries. Yet when interpreted by a contemporary symbolist it displays a knowledge of human life and history that is characteristically modern. Primarily a game board with dice and markers it is also a beautiful art object or art “form”; a paradigm of human wisdom based on the design of the human body; a mathematical and geometrical standard with a symbolic “magic number” board; and a prophetic “structure” that speaks to us about our historical and religious traditions. As a modern game board it offers a unique series of movement and placement games that can be played by two initiates in an hour or so as a cult-experience among friends. Discover for your self the joys of learning from and playing with an Ur-board. And enjoy contemplating the vision of a future world as it is revealed by the UR-BOARD BOOK.
