The following facts came from The Fact Site.

4th December – Dice Day.

The Ancient Egyptians were known to use dice in 3000BC, in a game called Senet (though really, hieroglyphics are so hard to decipher that it could be called two reeds-eye-snake-grass for all we know).

Dice have been excavated from The Royal Cemetery At Ur, a Mesopotamian burial site dating back to the 24th century BC, and it is theorized that dice originated in the Middle East, which isn’t too surprising when you realize that the Ancient Middle East is known as “the cradle of civilization”.

Did you know that opposite sides of six-sided dice will always add up to 7?

Play a game of chance today, and wow people with your keen observational skills, I won’t tell them you got that fact from a website.
