Many say backgammon originated in Mesopotamia in the Persian Empire, which today is Iran, Iraq and Syria. Some say the Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks, and Romans played a form of backgammon probably derived from the earlier Indian game of Parcheesi. The Chinese believe that the game of Nard was invented in Western India and was used in China in mid 200s AD.

Backgammon was invented around 3000 BCE in Persia. A set found in The Burnt City had 60 checkers and two dice and predates the previous oldest set found in Ur by almost 200 years.
