The top is made from a piece of

cylinder has a sort of flat or hat,
called a spike, which gives support
to wind the thread.

The gum is a game that is
especially popular among girls.
To do this, use a rubber band
together with a knot at the

This game is known from ancient Egypt,
[citation needed] as found in the tomb of
an Egyptian child around 3000 a. C. We
also know that in Crete the children
played with marbles polished precious
materials.
Other primitive peoples used coarser
materials such as bones of olives,
hazelnuts and chestnuts to play marbles.
In ancient Rome the game was very
popular among children, which remained
popular during the Middle Ages.
Even at the beginning of the twentieth
century some marbles were made of
stone. It is currently held world
championships.
