| Description | Isak Lidström, a doctoral student at Malmö University, reports that in studying the isolated island of Runö in the Baltic Sea, he found a game called "leik mjul" ["play ball"] among the Swedes there prior to World War II. One source suggests that the game came to the island in the 1840's when a ship from England was stranded, and that perhaps the game evolved from rounders. Isak is preparing a paper on the find for publication, and Protoball plans to update this entry at a later time.
