Ulama (game)
Ulama ((:uˈlama)) is a ball game played in a few communities in the Mexican state of Sinaloa. Descended from the Aztec version of the Mesoamerican ballgame,〔Leyenaar (2001) p. 123.〕 the game is one of the oldest continuously played sports in the world, and is also notable for the fact that it is the oldest known game utilizing a rubber ball.
==History==
(詳細はNahuatl word ''ōllamaliztli'' a combination of ''ōllamas'' (playing of a game with a ball) and ''ōllei'' (rubber). ''Ōllamaliztli'' was the Aztec name for the Mesoamerican ballgame, whose roots extended back to at least the 2nd millennium BC and evidence of which has been found in nearly all Mesoamerican cultures in an area extending from modern-day Mexico to El Salvador, and possibly in modern-day Arizona and New Mexico.〔Fox, John. (''The ball : discovering the object of the game" ), 1st ed., New York : Harper, 2012. ISBN 978-0-06-188179-4. Cf. Chapter 4: "Sudden Death in the New World" about the Ulama game.〕 Archaeologists have uncovered rubber balls dated to at least 1600 BC,〔See El Manati article for information on recovery of the earliest rubber balls.〕 ballgamer figures from at least 1200 BC, and nearly 1500 ancient ball courts.〔〔Taladoire counts 1560 courts discovered as of the year 2000, p. 98.〕
However, due to its religious and ritual aspects, Spanish Catholics suppressed the game soon after the Spanish conquest, leaving it to survive in areas such as Sinaloa, where Spanish influence was less pervasive.〔Leyenaar (2001) p. 128.〕
