Late Monday morning, several families with children enjoyed games of marbles, jacks and the ancient Egyptian board game of Senet. The games, from ancient to modern, are part of a new exhibit at the Georgia Southern University Museum. After being closed since April 19 for renovations, the museum reopened Monday, debuting its “Games” exhibit for the summer.
