These gorgeous tiny glass gaming counters from a group of 24 (6 white, 6 green, 6 yellow, 6 red) were found in a Late Iron Age grave at Welwyn Garden City Hertfordshire in 1965 😍
Sadly the rules of the game are now lost

@davidwjgill @Durotrigesdig There are similar (but less visually striking) sets of pieces in Bologna Archaeological Museum, and also in Ancona. It would appear to be a four player game (6 pieces per player). It could be a strategy game, or it could be a race game. See Schädler (2019) dx.doi.org/10.47245/archi…
