Sant (card Game)
Piquet (; ) is an early 16th-century plain-trick game, plain-trick card game for two players that became France's national game. David Parlett calls it a "classic game of relatively great antiquity... still one of the most skill-rewarding card games for two" but one which is now only played by "aficionados and connoisseurs." Historically also known as Sant or Saunt from the French ''Cent''. History Piquet is one of the oldest card games still being played. It is first mentioned, as ''Le Cent'', in a written reference dating to 1535, in ''Gargantua and Pantagruel'' by Rabelais. Although legend attributes the game's creation to Stephen de Vignolles, also known as La Hire, a knight in the service of Charles VII during the Hundred Years' War, it may possibly have come into France from Spain because the words "''pique''" and "''repique''", the main features of the game, are of Spanish origin.

Sant (religion)
A ''sant'' (; IAST: ; ) is a human being revered as a "truth-exemplar" for their abnormal level of "self, truth, ndreality" in Indian religions, particularly Hinduism, Jainism, Sikhism, and Buddhism.
