Senet and Backgammon share similarities in their board layout, use of dice, and the objective of moving pieces strategically to reach a designated end point. Both games involve elements of chance and skill, as players must navigate their pieces while considering the moves of their opponents. It's likely that Backgammon evolved from Senet through the adaptation of its rules and gameplay dynamics, incorporating elements like the doubling cube and more complex movement strategies, reflecting changes in cultural preferences and social interactions over time. The transition from the simpler mechanics of Senet to the strategic depth of Backgammon showcases the evolution of Board Games as reflections of their respective societies.

The game of backgammon is commonly known as one of the oldest board games between two players. The game dates back over 5000 years, and many areas claim to have 'invented' backgammon. The earliest known record of a backgammon-like game were the Egyptian/Iraqi games of senet and the Royal Game of Ur, dating back to around 3000 BC. The game of 'nard' was popular in ancient Persia (now Iran) and has been found to be existent in a similar time. The Ancient Romans and Indians of 400 AD had games of backgammon, the Chinese, French and Spanish all had their own variants of the game too. But the first use of the word 'backgammon' was found in the Oxford English Dictionary of 1650, with rules at the time very similar to ours. Overall, we can safely say that backgammon originated somewhere in the Egyptian or Middle Eastern region 5000 years ago.

The origins of board games date back thousands of years, making it difficult to attribute their discovery to a single individual. The earliest known board game is Senet, which was played in ancient Egypt around 3100 BCE. Other ancient games, such as Go from China and backgammon from the Middle East, also emerged independently in different cultures. Thus, board games evolved through various civilizations rather than being discovered by one person.
