L'origine du jeu fait l'objet de plusieurs hypothèses. Le jeu, dans sa forme primitive, est né en Asie entre le IIIe et le VIe siècle de notre ère. Le lieu précis est toujours discuté : Inde, Chine, ou Asie centrale (entre la Perse et l'Ouzbékistan). Arrivé en Perse sous le nom de Chatrang au VIe siècle, il est adopté par le monde musulman au Moyen-Orient et y connaît un grand développement qui prépare sa forme moderne. (wikipédia)
