投壶起源于战国时期。以酒壶象征箭靶,人在离壶二矢半(约七尺)处,用竹矢投向壶口,进入壶中者为胜,否则输。这种娱乐活动,多见于宋人的酒宴上做罚酒时用。

Pitch-pot had originated by the Warring States period of China. It is a traditional Chinese game that requires players to throw arrows or sticks from a set distance into a large canister. Whoever hits wins, otherwise loses. This type of entertainment activity is commonly seen in Song Dynasty banquets.
