Mancala board of Arguni → German, Portuguese. Adolf Hahn collected during the so-called Frobenius expedition in 1937/1938 a mancala board on the island of Arguni off the coast of western New Guinea (today: West Papua, Indonesia). It is a simple wooden board with two rows of five round pits, three large square-shaped holes in the middle and a round store hole for captured counters at each end. The board has a length of 60 cm and a maximum width of 16 cm. The counters used in the game are seeds of an undetermined plant species.
