Why Do We Use Crossword Puzzles?

Crossword is a word puzzle that usually takes the form of a square or a rectangular grid of white- and black-shaded squares. According to historians, this method of training mental abilities emerged in the IV century. During excavations in Pompeii, the scientists found a puzzle resembling a modern crossword and dated it to 79 AD.
