"Renne: A Majestic Creature and Symbol of the Arctic" The reindeer, with its graceful presence and majestic antlers, is a captivating creature that has long fascinated humans. Found in the icy landscapes of the Arctic regions, this magnificent animal holds a special place in folklore and cultural traditions. In ancient times, the reindeer was not only admired for its beauty but also valued for its practical uses. The indigenous people of Siberia relied on these gentle creatures for transportation, using them to pull sleighs through snowy terrains. An enchanting drawing by Eve Felinska depicts a reindeer sleigh, evoking memories of exile in Siberia during 1839. Engravings from historical publications such as "Le tour du monde" and "The old and modern costume" offer glimpses into the lives of those who shared their habitat with reindeer. Octagonal huts belonging to Lapons (Laplanders) are depicted in Jules Ferrario's work from Milan in 1819-1820. These dwellings showcase how humans adapted to survive alongside these remarkable animals. Renowned bookseller-publisher Alphonse Lemerre played an essential role in preserving knowledge about reindeers through his publication titled "Alphabet. " Charles Unsinger completed printing this masterpiece on November 15th, 1875 at Passage Choiseul in Paris. Engravings within this book capture various aspects related to renne - be it grapevine cultivation represented by raisin or foxes roaming freely among them. Furthermore, engravings like those found within "Histoire de l'Habitation Humaine" illustrate human habitation during the era when rennes roamed freely. One particular engraving showcases Bruniquel's rock shelter where early humans sought refuge during that time period. While exploring diverse cultures worldwide, we encounter intriguing references to renne-like Yakoute de Siberie featured prominently in the "Grand alphabet des nations.
