Lamlameta is a traditional game of the konso people in southern Ethiopia. This game is reminiscent of the board games Gebeta and Mancala.

The board used is called a "toma tagega" and is made up of two rows of twelve pits or "awa" each.

The game begins with 2 seeds (tagega) being put into each pit.

A player will take all the seeds from one of his pits and relays sow them in a counterclockwise way. The first move is usually to transfer them from one of the 2 rightmost pits.

One exception associated only with the opening move: all succeeding sowings of any opponents' pit holdings with exactly 2 seeds being skipped.

Players' turns end when the last seed is placed in an empty pit. If the pit is in their row, and the opposite pit which is in the opponent's row contains exactly 2 seeds, then a capture has occurred.

With this, all the opponents’ seeds in any pit with 2 seeds are removed from the board game.

It is game over when one of the players has no more seeds left. In that case, the opponent captures all the seeds that are on the board. The winner owns the most seeds.
