The mission of this TB is to have its picture taken with carousels around the world. Feel free to move this TB anywhere you want, keeping its primary mission in mind if you can.
The smiles and laughter which carousels inspire is a centuries-old tradition; in fact, today's carousels are the proud inheritors of a rich history stretching back 1,500 years.
Carousel is derived from the words "garosello" (Italian) and "carosella" (Spanish), both of which mean "little war" and were used to describe the serious game which Italian and Spanish crusaders saw Arabian and Turkish horsemen playing in the twelfth century.
The crusaders brought this game back to Europe, where it spread to various countries, including France in the late fifteenth century. The French called the game "carrousel" and ultimately transformed it into a grand event of pageantry and horsemanship.
Soon thereafter, local craftsmen began producing an increasing number of these relatively simple machines as it became apparent that other members of the nobility, particularly ladies and children, and the general public were both eager to climb aboard this new "carrousel".
