Christmas Reindeer has various mythical interpretations. The ancient stories of the Norse tell about the god of Thunder Thor, who flew through the stormy sky in chariots drawn by magical goats termed Gnasher and Cracker. Santa Claus used Goat as his carrier in Sweden during the 18th c. In Finland the traditional gift bringer during Christmas was Joulupukki or the Yule buck.
The names of the reindeers first appeared in a Christmas rhyme 'Twas the night before Christmas written by Major Henry Livingston Junior in 1807. It was entitled as Account of a visit from St. Nicholas. The renowned educationist Clement Clark Moore made many alterations to it. Robert L May wrote the story of Rudolf the red- nosed Reindeer May in 1939 in a booklet for the Montgomery Ward department stores. The Rudolph story became very popular when the song was recorded by Gene Autry r in 1949.
