Where Did Bowling Begin?

Relics found in tombs of ancient Egyptian children who lived in 5200 B.C. show that these children used 9 pieces of stone set up as pins and a stone ball to roll against them. This ball had to be rolled through an arch made of three pieces of marble before it hit the pins.

There are 65,000,000 bowlers in the world today. The largest bowling alley in the world is in Japan, the Tokyo World Lanes Bowling Center, with 504 lanes!
