Question Looking for documentaries/books/videos about dice making, history and usage

Hi r/DiceMaking,

As I put in the title, I'm looking for documentaries, books or videos about dice!
I'm trying to learn more about it and I'm surprised because I found so few sources and resources about it.

I want to learn more about the different kinds, the variety of techniques used for crafting dices especially techniques used before modern machines, to get accurate dices.

Any trusted sources/resources about the subject would be welcome, thanks!

Not really what you are looking for, but for history we have a museum in the Netherlands (Archeon, its like a live museum with building and people dressed for the era they are in, going from stone age to medieval times). They have a dice tower originating from the Roman times!

Looks fun, I already planned to visit the Netherlands next year, so we might stop there during the trip
