Tops or Koma

Japanese boys also like playing with tops and kites. Tops, or koma, spun either by hand or with a string, came to Japan about a thousand years ago from China. During the Edo period (1603-1868), a competitive game with tops became popular.

Using a string, players spun small wooden or steel tops called bei-goma inside a ring, usually a bucket covered with a towel, and tried to knock their opponents' tops out of bounds.


Over the years, many different kinds of tops have been created in Japan, including tops that make noise and tops that spin extra fast.
