Mandoli ("almonds") was played in the Cyclades, Greece, in the second half of the 18th and the first half of the 19th century. A mancala game played in the Levantine was shown by the Swiss miniaturist Jean-Etienne Liotard (1702-1789) in his painting "Deux dames grecques ou franques assises sur un divan et jouant au mankala'h" (Sanguine et pierre noire (14,8 cm x 21,7 cm)), c. 1740. Later the Scottish traveller John Galt observed Mandoli on the Greek island of Hydra in 1810. The game appears to be influenced by other mancala games played in the Ottoman Empire, such as Halusa and Mangala.
