What about history and geographical spread of the game? Did the game exist before the invention of paper and scissors? In Denmark the game is played as defined here (same "weapons"), but is this true for everywhere? (The CIA factbook seems a little sparse on this topic).

Obviously it is also played here in Australia, yet I've only ever known it as "Scissors, paper, stone". I wonder why we reverse the order of objects...? MMGB

I am NOT anti-podean. I am quite fond of anything with feet. - MMGB
