Games that use dice and the dice themselves goes back to the Crusades, but modern craps is only about 100 years old. Current craps evolved from the old English game called Hazard. No one knows for certain the origin of the game, but Hazard is said to have been invented by the Anglo, Sir William of Tyre, sometime in the twelfth century. It is presumed that Sir William's knights bet on Hazard through a siege on the citadel Hazarth in 1125 AD. The name Hazard was gotten from the fortress's name.

Early French settlers imported the game Hazard to Nova Scotia. In the 1700s, when exiled by the British, the French moved south and settled in the south of Louisiana where they after a while became known as Cajuns. When they were driven out of Acadia, they took their favored game, Hazard, with them. The Cajuns simplified the game and made it fair mathematically. It's believed that the Cajuns adjusted the title to craps, which is acquired from the term for the losing throw of two in the game of Hazard, recognized as "crabs."

From Louisiana, the game extended to the Mississippi barges and throughout the nation. A great many consider the dice builder John H. Winn as the creator of current craps. In 1907, Winn created the current craps layout. He added the Do not Pass line so gamblers can bet on the dice to lose. Later, he developed the spaces for Place wagers and added the Big 6, Big 8, and Hardways.
