What a great subject! "The History Of Gambling" ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I would absolutely love to see proof that our cave-dwelling ancestors had gambling games with rocks, sticks and bones. I doubt there is a way to actually find out the oldest gambling games of humans /early humans though. We cannot even seem to find out what the lost languages, like aramaic or even older ones, were in essence. So something as complex as gambling is definitely lost to time. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) There is even proof that animals like chimpanzees have a proclivity towards some version of what might resemble gambling. They did experiments with apes in labs and the apes did seem to understand the gambling concept of risky winning. Not sure if one could find something similiar in wild nature.

just to add to the online gambling part, they are now also bringing it into Virtual reality. with the advancement of technology, it'll be only a matter of time before gambling in Virtual reality would become a norm. People went from fighting in a pit and wagering on the winner, to throwing dice in a casino, picking numbers on a wheel, or playing a slot machine.
and now they can also do that in the comfort of their home or wherever they are.

I never thought that it turns out that the history of gambling is very old and has been done by people since time immemorial. But I think maybe that's what has been written in books about the history of gambling but maybe there are still things that haven't been written or found because there are still many locations that still keep mysteries and may have something to do with gambling. Very interesting article by @OP and can explain to us that the age of gambling itself is very old. We may never have imagined how they invented gambling and its appropriate tools for that era.
In my opinion, the history of gambling may go back much earlier than the era of the pharaohs, and perhaps it may reach the Babylonian era, when civilization was flourishing under the rule of Hammurabi. But the article is limited by scientific integrity as the oldest tool discovered may have been used to make a bet. I once read in one of the stories that in the Babylonian era in Mesopotamia, some were betting on the soldiers going to war whether he would return or not, and the one who won the bet of a soldier who could no longer get that soldier’s wife.

Maybe it's painted on cave walls from our ancestors for newer generations to see. We may not know that but I had a feeling with the advancement of anthropology in the modern era more and more evidence will be found not just in gambling but on other niches as well.

Interesting basic overview. Quite frankly, it is very likely that gambling is as old as life itself. If you consider animal behaviour, everything is about gambling and the stake is usually life itself or even the right to reproduce, feed or a territory. Many animals frequently have to "bet" on a decision in the sense that they choose to fight or flee, confront a rival or leave it to see another day, etc... For humans, no difference... life is a gamble.
And I prefer to bet for life, where I don't know tomorrow I will get money to eat, get a salary slip or not, get health or even fall ill all will never be separated from maintaining myself from the rigors of life. The gambling story that is so long above proves that this has made human civilization about betting not only about getting something. Like rolling the dice if the result is a red dot then the chances of success are small. Like the Japanese samurai determine the fate of their enemies just by rolling the dice.

Gambling is an old trend which had started many years before now and as the year advances, everything changes like the way we used to gamble using fiat currency but now we don't need to go to bother about the stress of using fiat and now we can easily without stress use digital currency to get things done. As the year goes, more gambler with embrace the use of Cryptocurrency for gambling and for day to day transactions.

Gambling has been around since ancient times. In the old days, people used to gamble through various art techniques.They used to make gambling halls by cutting grooves on the wheels.Then slowly people move towards improvement and gambling improves.Nowadays people have been updated so much that now they are gambling online through mobile.Then maybe there will be more updates and we will see more updated gambling.

Gambling was the essential part for the players,who was interested in the betting.Gambling made the money making machine now,but you need to know how to handle the machine.If you not handle in correctly,it will cut your own hand.This will affect you for the real money,no one will escape from this.So you need to handle the machine first to earn money.
But, isn't betting and gambling the same thing? You can instead say that betting or gambling is essential for those who want to double/triple their money in an instant without taking much effort and more importantly is to have fun at the same time. Gambling is indeed a money making machine but only for the gambling operators but for those who who are only playing and think this way well maybe they are impressed with their ability of playing a gambling and they think they can be able to win more but I still think that their losses is much more than their winnings but that's good if they don't mind it. That kind of mindset is needed here in gambling.

So it is said that any trade which snatches money from one person and immidatidly benefits other one is forbidden and prohibited.

The evolution of gambling is really astonishing. And as we can see, it has existed since time immemorial. It has been with humanity throughout its evolution. So stopping gambling won't be possible because it is like innate to humans. And look at what we have now, we can gamble at the comfort of our home without ever dealing with actual people. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I wonder when was the origin of sports betting. I read it is pretty common during Ancient Rome like horse racing and gladiator fights.
History shows that gambling has been part of human life. It thrives even with the disapproval of many religions, so anyone trying to remove gambling from society is pretty much hitting his head on a sturdy brick wall. interesting article and interesting info gathered by OP- even in religious books, like Bible and Quran gambling is prohibited.
Can I have the verses where these two Books state that gambling is Illegal? (word by word please not some interpretation of someone not stated by the book)

I have always thought that during the ancient days, there's already gambling but in different terms like in physique and competitions. There's no actual bet. But gambling during that time is the actual competition and the winner will get the recognition that they'll have. The winner takes it all why the loser will have the degraded attention from the mass like losing his popularity.

It's a long history and yes, gambling has been around us since many years ago. The gambling itself is always progressing from traditional ways that are gambling offline only with certain things to bet until right now the crypto gambing. The progress of gambling is happening because it is due to the development of technology and also how people are many more interested in gambling. This also develops due to the global gambling activities that can be done by all people around the world, not only in local area.

^ I think before that is not gambling for them during ancient days, it is a competition or it could be entertainment during when there is a special days and time to time, they found out how to bet. I read this before somewhere else but don't know how to remember it. Gambling before probably the very first common is competition because people not only gamble but also it will be entertained. However, I have learned a lot with the thread of OP, I don't know that during BC there is a dice game and they already knew it but on my mind, the origin of gambling should be on China.

It is interesting to see the development of gambling over the years. From trading stones, to slots, and to the integration of a system that is conveniently accessed online. Due to the pandemic, this also strengthened its playerbase especially that most people have preferred to gamble online and realize its convenience and potentia and lots of physical gambling companies have started closing as they adopted their services on the internet.
I guess OP you can also add that gambling has also been integrated to our mobile phones and to some of the online games present. Though they make take a form that is somehow different from your conventional gambling method (e.g. crate boxes, etc.), in essence, a player still gambles on the process.

Wait, cutting grooves in Wheels? then how come that this is a gambling when it is a obvious skill of work and not a gambling way? Then slowly people move towards improvement and gambling improves.Nowadays people have been updated so much that now they are gambling online through mobile.
Mobile or another form of gambling but the main idea here is that we can gamble without even presenting our self. Then maybe there will be more updates and we will see more updated gambling.
yes there is, almost monthly there are new things happening or offering in gambling world specially here in this area.

3000 BC – A pair of dice was recovered from an Egyptian tomb dating back 5000 years. I've seen this dice is from Greece and by looking the symbols more carefully it really makes sense they are more similar to greek ones. THE HISTORY OF GAMBLING IN ANCIENT GREECE
Interesting how the ancient world was closely associated to gambling. People believed gods controlled every aspects of their daily life, including gambling outcomes. During the wars, it was common for soldiers and mercenaries to gamble at their campsites to relieve the tension and escape the blood bath for a while. Legend says dice game was invented during the siege of Troy, by a man named Palamedes, although it's not an accurate statement, since dice was already disponible since a long before. Achilles and Ajax playing dices
Sports betting have also been present since the ancient Greece at least, during Olympic games, on its origins.

There is no way to know exactly how old gambling is, but it seems to have existed almost as long as humans have.
Ahh. I thought this generation is naughty and have bad habits like gambling, but I was the damn wrong. Rather it is happening since centuries ago and we are only taking it forward. You'll be very surprised to know that our ancestors' lifestyle was the same as ours, from their professions, their politics, to business, banking, and finance. Our only difference is that we are in the better side of the technology spectrum, which should give us a shower thought that if we are given a golden opportunity to invest in a ground-breaking technology, we should take it! A ground-breaking invention on money, perhaps? ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

True, d20 is covered with Greek symbols and not Egyptian hieroglyphs, but it was found in Egypt and dates from the period when Egypt was under the control of the Greek Ptolemies. There is no way to know exactly what the d20 was used for. In ancient times, dice were often used for divination rituals, so this dice may not even be part of gambling history at all.
