Ancient monopoly?

Zahi Hawass was our tour guide back when we lived in Israel and it was more or less safe to visit Egypt, (He is head honcho of antiquities in Egypt now).
So we went to the Cairo museum. GADS what a museum! You could roam for days without seeing it all. Anyway, I asked him about early chess type board games and he showed me a cartouche that clearly showed a board game but the board was small, 3 squares wide and maybe 10 squares deep. Nobody knows now how the game went, but pieces somehow advanced and there was a certain strategy to the game. Always wondered just how to play that game.
