It is first mentioned in a text by J. I. Molina in 1787, describing it as a game of Chess. Subsequent authors have doubted the identification of this game as Chess, and have largely agreed that it is indeed a hunt game popular among the Araucanians from the nineteenth century, also known as \"Leoncito.\" It is a hunt game, played on an Alquerque-type board with a triangular appendage. It may be derived from the game Komina (also Taptana) known from Inka times.")
