The origin of the game Kubb
dates back to the Viking Era A.D. 770.
Vikings were pre-historic people; who did not write history books
themselves. Their neighbors to the
South recorded much of the Viking history during chance meetings as Vikings
sailed the seas. There was more to
these people than the popular warrior stereotype. Vikings took great pride in being skilled craftsmen, poets,
politicians and loyal family members.
Kubb was a popular game that Viking family members played as they
searched for firewood. 200 years ago,
people in Scandinavia became very interested in Vikings and Kubb was
rediscovered. Thanks to their
interests, outdoor game enthusiasts now have the opportunity to play a game
that challenges even the most skilled player while enjoying the camaraderie of
family and friends.
