　　The first true piece of sports equipment (器材) that man invented was the ball.

　　In ancient Egypt, as everywhere else, throwing stones was a game that small children liked best. But a badly thrown rock could hurt a child. Looking for something less dangerous to throw, the Egyptians made what were probably the first balls.

　　In the beginning, balls were made of grass or leaves held together by animal skins. Later they were made of pieces of cloth sewed together and filled with feathers or hay.

　　Even though the Egyptians were warlike(好战的),they found time for peaceful games. Before long they had developed a number of ball games, each with its own set of rules. Perhaps they played ball games more for instruction(训练) than for fun. Ball playing was thought of mainly as a way to teach young men the speed and skill they would need for war.
