METAL-TIME Decorative Puzzle Or Game
Description
The modern carousel emerged from early jousting traditions in Europe and the Middle East. Knights would gallop in a circle while tossing balls from one to another; an activity that required great skill and horsemanship.[citation needed] This game was introduced to Europe at the time of the Crusades from earlier Byzantine and Arab traditions.In times of the great antique empireâs wars, Persian horsemen practiced their skill through circular races. The task was to maintain speed and distance between the riders. Sometimes the task became more complicated: several circles were created and the riders alternately fired from their bows at the center, where the targets were located.This exercise has been used for centuries in teaching horsemanship. In Europe, it acquired a ritual significance and was used as a jousting tournament. And then it became popular entertainment. In this kind, it was called the âcarouselâ. So from the military camps, the carousel moved to the central squares of medieval cities. The horses running in circles remained, but now joyful children sat on them. The carousel has gone through many incarnations in different versions of mechanisms and architecture. And so far, this technical solution is the best suited for modeling.The designers of Metal Time creatively approached the historical image and retained its basic architecture: the outlines of a camping tent, a rotating disk, and figures arranged in a circle. In the version of âRiding the Bestâ the âMetal Timeâ models appear on the carousel. Thus, in addition to hours of technical creativity and interior decoration, model owners get the opportunity to study and show others our model range.
