Anywoli → Italian. Anywoli (literally "birthing") is a mancala game of the Anuak who live in the Ethiopian province of Gambela in the far west of the country and across the South Sudanese border in Akobo, Pochalla and Jokau. They count about 78,000 people and are traditionally peasants, fishermen and hunters. The western part of their kingdom was annexed by the British in 1898, while the eastern part was occupied by Ethiopia with French help. Anywoli is related to games played in Nigeria and Ghana such as Ba-awa and Obridjie. It was first described by Richard Pankhurst in 1971.
