text:
Nickernuts or nickar nuts are smooth, shiny seeds from tropical leguminous shrubs, particularly Guilandina bonduc and Guilandina major, both known by the common name warri tree. C. bonduc produces gray nickernuts, and C. major produces yellow. Accordingly, these species are locally known in the Caribbean as "grey nickers" and "yellow nickers". The word nicker probably derives from the Dutch word "knikker", meaning marble. In the Caribbean, nickernuts are used to play mancala games such as oware.
