What are the totem symbols in European countries?

5. Dara Troy, Sweden

Dala Trojan Horse comes from a warm story. /kloc-At the beginning of the 0/7th century, in Dara, central Sweden, there were dense virgin forests. Many workers make a living by logging. They stayed in the forest for a long time and missed their children very much, so some people made toys for their children with wood to express their ideas. ?

At that time, the horse transported the wood cut by the workers outside, and the gentle, kind, loyal and determined horse became the best partner of the workers. Therefore, in their spare time, loggers use local hard birch trees as raw materials to carve the shape of horses as children's toys. ?

Swedes who love forests believe that when trees are carved into Dalama, they are given new life. Slowly, people's understanding of Dara Troy extended from affection to love, and it began to spread and become popular among young men and women. Dara Troy will bring happiness and beauty to love, give it life and become a totem of love. ?
