Ohvalhu ("game of eight (holes)"), also known as Ohvalhu gondi, is a mancala game played on the Maldives. It is closely related to the Indonesian games of Congkak and Dakon, although it is not identical with either of them as has been erroneously stated by Alexander Johan de Voogt. Two Maldive game boards of the Museum of Archaeology and Paleontology, University of Pennsylvania, were depicted by Stewart Culin for playing the game of Naranj, probably the same game as Ohvalhu, in 1894. The game has been solved by human players and it is a win for the first player in the first move.
