Game Lièvre
Location France
Date 1917-01-01 - 1917-12-31
Rules Two concentric circles, with four radii from the outer circle to in the center, dividing the circles into four equal parts. There are four arcs, each of which bisects a radius between where each radius intersects the circumference of each circle, the arc also intersecting with the outer circle's circumference. One player plays as a hare the other as three dogs. The players alternate turns moving one of their pieces along the lines of the board. If the dogs block the hare from being able to move, the dogs win.
Content Mention of Lièvre, with a picture of the board made for blind people: "Qui ne connaît le jeu du Lièvre paut-être aussi ancien que le jeu de l'oie: trois pions (les chiens) courent à un pion (le lièvre) qu'il s'agit de bloquer en un endroit quelconque du jeu. " Fournier 1917: 656.
