ANCIENT RACES PLAYED BALL
Tossing the Sphere Is Supposed to
Have Had Deep Symbolic Mean
inQ Centuries Ago.

Although it is proven fact that
the game now designated baseball is
of modern and purely American origin.
the use of a ball in ceremonies and
games goes back many centuries.
Four thousand years ago, in the
twelfth Egyptian dynasty, g Coptic
artist sculptured on the temple Beni
Hassan, human figures throwing and
catching balls. A leather-coyered ball
used in games played on the Nile over
40 centuries ago, has place among
the many archaeological specimens in
the British museum. It has sewed
cover and is in a remarkable state Of
preservation.
The game Of ball was priced by the
Greeks as giving grace and elasticity
to the human figure, and they erected
statue to one Aristonicus for his
proficiency in it. Ancient medical
practitioners were wont to prescribe
a course Of ball playing, where the
modern doctor would order a diet OF
pills.
1t is supposed that ball tossing had
deep symbolic meaning when played
in the spring Of the year; and that
the tossing of the ball was intended
first to typify the upspringing of the
life of nature after the gloom Of win
ter. And, whether this was the case
among the people of antiquity or not
it is remarkable fact that the &C.
clesiastics of the early church adopted
this symbol and gave 1t a very special
significance by meeting on Easter day
and throwing a ball from hand to
hand, to typify the Resurrection.
