Question
Where's the birthplace of bowling?

Answer
For the best answer to that, check out the bowling hall of fame and museum web site.  I think they have alink to that on bowl.com, or you can just do a web search for the bowling hall of fame.

Some books have traced it back to ancient Egypt and it was thought to have been a religous activity in old world germany.............that is the origin of kegle.

Good luck,
