    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    The game of darts originated in Medieval England and has its roots in archery. The earliest recorded conceptions of dart boards were based on the same concentric-circle design that can be found in archery. Furthermore, the game of darts is often referred to as a game of "arrows," which lends credence to the idea that darts comes from archery. In America, the game can be traced back to the Pilgrims.
