Close variants are ''Dakon'' or ''Dhakon'' (Java), ''Sungka'' (Philippines), ''Chongka (Marianas), ''Jogklak'' (interior of Java); ''Dentuman Lamban'' (Lampung), ''Mokaotan'', ''Maggaleceng'', ''Aggalacang'' or ''Nogarata'' (Celebes), ''Chonka'' (Sri Lanka) and ''Naranj'' (Maldives). Congkak, which is often considered a game for girls, has simple rules that allow the boards to have different numbers of holes. Congkak boards are often made of teak or mahogany wood are often elaborately carved into various shapes such as naga or birds. ==Etymology== The word ''congkak'' is believed to originate from old Malay "congak", meaning "mental calculation" which is mainly practiced in this game. It is regarded that an efficient player who mentally calculates a few steps in advance will have an advantage in collecting points to win the game. The word ''congkak'' or ''congklak'' also means cowrie shells, used in the game. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Congkak」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
