Soroban Abacus and Training

Soroban, the ancient tool used for counting dating back to the ancient Roman and Greek times, has evolved through different civilizations. The primitive Chinese abacus which had two top and five lower beads was first introduced to the Japanese during the 16th century. It was then used by the traders and merchants. Until the 1930s the Japanese adopted this Chinese abacus and they named it Soroban. Soroban, the only abacus with one bead at the top and four lower beads, can be immensely efficient to use by a skilled user. Visualizing and using the beads for calculating mentally can even beat a calculator.
