Here is a Roman D20 carved from crystal in the 3rd century AD. These were used, historians suspect for telling fortunes. However, no one can *prove* they weren't used for some kind role playing game. Which is what getting a fortune told with a die is kind of like anyways if you ask me.

"roll for initiative"

I think the evidence is piling up. https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/114/361/602/996/094/180/original/...
