Halusa
Halusa is two-row mancala-style game documented in early modern Mesopotamia. It was said to be played by Arabs and Turks living there, and it is one of the earliest descriptions of the rules of a mancala game that has survived. It is similar to other mancala games which are still played in Southwest Asia today. The board is drawn as a hinged wooden box, with two rows of six holes.
