Yes, one of the oldest record in Ancient Chinese game recorded games using East West South North, like β€œζ±δΊ”ε—δΉ (east 5 south 9)” meaning on the East side count inward 5, from the south side count inward 9, etc. (someone also interpreted as marking each line a number on each side, so they can be rotated). Maybe similar to the system using β€œεΉ³γ€δΈŠγ€εŽ»γ€ε…₯” (four words for tonal indicators) for each section in Xuan Xuan Qi Jing
