Shatranj is an ancient Persian chess variant, popular over a thousand years ago.
In today's manuscript, it is red to move and to win.
The position was first written down by Al-Adli, 1200 years ago, and engines are
unable to solve this.
In case you missed them, here are some of my previous shatranj videos...
Two full games from the 920s:

And a forced mate in 71!
