A lantern in Arabic is called Fanoos. It is similar to a lamp, except that it's lighted by a candle instead of oil. The story of using the Fanoos started in the era of Mamluks rule over Egypt and the Near East. Women then used to walk around with their lanterns to go to relatives in Ramadan to break their fast. Since then, the Fanoos has been used mostly in Ramadan, and it has also become the symbol for Ramadan. The Fanoos has developed greatly over the years, and now it comes in many shapes and sizes.
