Bowling game
The sweetness of victory always attracts many! Maybe it is in this regard, the right to be called the progenitor of bowling claimed by many countries and peoples. Then, there are "irrefutable proof" of this game (or its prototype) in a particular locality. Though the idea of bowling so harmonious that thought before it could even cavemen. Indeed, what could be easier?
Skittles, whose role it could perform some pig wooden or stone columns... Ball carved or hollowed out of the same material... roll yeah, throw! based on the age of the currently existing archeological finds in the bowling began to play ancient Egyptians. At least, this hypothesis was put forward by the British anthropologist sir Flinders Petrie. In different years among fans of the game were even Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther, sir Francis Drake — all and will not list.
However, it is recognized that they played after all, not the bowling. Rules varied from country to country, from century to century. The shape, material, number and location of points, width and length of the tracks, the weight and the diameter of the balls. "Skittles", "logins", "skittles", "Dutch rabbits"... But how many more would – different names, different options of bowling? But it's probably not important. Importantly, bowling evolved, conquered new countries and gained more number of fans... but the game got at the end now the last nineteenth century in the United States.
And since, by and large, nothing has changed. Only play now bowling the millions of people around the world, in our country gradually starts to develop this wonderful sport and recreation. I want to believe that in a hundred years in the History of bowling Ukraine will be able to take their place. And while serious competition is among athletes, bowlers of the United States, Western Europe and Asia.
