Alquerques

A single establishment might well serve multiple functions. While a single building might serve as a church for the Glory of God and yet at the same time be a hospital to tend to the sick and injured, another multi-purpose establishment might be combination restaurant, bar, gambling den, and brothel. One such establishment has left a curious document, which details various games played and wagers placed within, during the later years of the reign of Queen Elizabeth the first. These games include Hazard, Basset, High Roll, Quilles, Shove-Groat, Landsquenet, Ranter Go Round, Poch (or Glic), Alquerque A Doz, Queek, and the Game of the Goose.

Games of the Middle Ages, specifical ly focusing on board games popular in the 13th and 14th centuries.
