Because of the description of a skittles war game open_in_new similar to kubb in the second edition of the Swedish Encyclopedia Nordisk familjebok, 1911 is often considered the year of birth for kubb. If a thrown kubb knocks over an existing baseline or field kubb, then the field kubbs are raised at the location where they rest, and baseline kubbs are raised at their original location. The game is similar to skittles or bowling where you have to throw to knock over the kubbs on the opposing side.
