Fetaix

Fetaix is thought to have originated in the Middle East and is considered the parent of draughts (US: checkers) and Fanorona. The game first appears in literature in the 10th century, and it was taken to Spain by the Moors, where rules were included in the 13th-century “Libro de los juegos” commissioned by Alfonso X of Castile. Spanish settlers in New Mexico also introduced a four-player variant of Alquerque to the Zuni.
