Trace the ancient origins of toys and games throughout history, and discover how play has evolved — and stayed the same.
--
Archaeologists have found material, visual, and written evidence for toys across the ancient world. In 3000 BCE Anatolia, miniature toy carriages raced through the dirt. In the Indus Valley a thousand years later, a toddler giggled at the sound of their terracotta whistle. So, what other playthings have delighted us through history? Trace the ancient origins of toys, games, and play traditions.
