No matter where you are in the world, as soon as you start a game of solitaire someone is bound to come up and let you know you can play your black 6 on that red 7 over there.

You can play mancala with a couple handfuls of rocks. It's an ancient game originating from 6th/7th century era Africa:

Also, if you run out of rocks, you can play Eson xorgol, which is mancala done mongol style, with 90 goat droppings:
