During the late 17th and early 18th centuries, young French noblemen honed their jousting skills by straddling legless wooden "horses" attached to a contraption that was pushed around a center pole by a servant. Stationed outside this device was a post from which a brass ring dangled, waiting to be speared as the rider circled past it. Thus, this game of "catching the brass ring" became the forerunner of the present-day carousel.
