Maki Kaji, the man who popularized Sudoku by giving it its Japanese name in the 1980s, died on August 10 of cancer at the age of 69, his publishing house announced Monday (August 16th). “Kaji-san, known as the man who gave Sudoku its name, was loved by puzzle enthusiasts around the world”, can we read on the site of the Nikoli publishing house, which he founded.
The original concept of the game, the Latin Square, was invented in the 18th century in Europe by a Swiss mathematician, Leonhard Euler.
