Chess
is a scientific game and its literature ought to be placed on the basis
of the strictest truthfulness, which is the foundation of all scientific
research. — W._Steinitz

the Byzantine (round) chess boards were made from. I have read that
they were sometimes made of leather or cloth but can find no source for
this. I may be reached at dsmith06@mail.orion.org
