The game is mentioned in the Analects of Confucius, the greatest ancient work of Chinese philosophy and ethics, written in the 6th century BC. It came to Japan about 1,500 years ago via the Korean peninsula, and became popular at the Japanese court among the Imperial family, the aristocracy and court ladies. It makes several appearances in the 11th century masterpiece “The Tale of Genji”, often described as the world’s first novel. Later, it spread to the warrior classes and the Buddhist priesthood and eventually flourished throughout the country.
