The simplest form of a lantern would simple be a candle. But the problem is that candles are easily blown out due to outside factories. Thus the invention of the lantern was created, in which the very same flame is housed, to ensure that the flame does not go out. A lot of cultures use lanterns as not only a way to light an area, but also to decorate their home and or their location. Lanterns were sometimes used in the east by placing a firefly inside of one, as its primary source of light. This practice of placing fireflies in lanterns, was a very common practice in asia amongst a large variety of people.
