Starting positions for Ming mang
Ming mang (Tibetan:མིག་མངས,Wylie:mig mangs) is a two-playerabstract strategyboard game fromTibet.Ming mang is also a general term for the word "boardgame" in Tibet. The correct name and spelling of the game may actually be Mig mang(s) (or Mig-Mang(s)),[8][9] but pronounced Ming mang or Mi Mang.[9] The term mig mang is also applied to Tibetan go[8] with both games using exactly the same board which is a 17 x 17 square board, and black and white pieces.[9][10] Mig is in reference to the chart (the pattern of horizontal and vertical lines) of the board, and Mangs refers to the notion that the more charts are used on the board, the more pieces are needed to play the game,[11] but some state that it means "many eyes".[8][9] The game may also be known as Gundru (or Gun-dru).[12] The game was popular among some Tibetan monks before the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1950, and the uprising in 1959,[13] and among aristocratic families.[9]
