盤點(diǎn)歷屆夏季奧運(yùn)會吉祥物

Wenlock - London 2012

Wenlock was created from the last drop of British steel used for the London 2012 Olympic Stadium. That?s why he is so shiny. His name is inspired by Much Wenlock in Shropshire, a town where "Much Wenlock Games" were held. The light on his head is inspired by the lights on London?s iconic black taxis. The shape of the front of his head is identical to the shape of the Olympic Stadium roof. His eye is a camera lens, capturing everything he sees. The three points on his head represent the places on the podium where successful athletes stand to receive their medals.

2012年倫敦奧運(yùn)會的吉祥物文洛克，使用名字來源于馬齊·文洛克的施羅普希爾村。在那里，曾經(jīng)舉辦過文洛克奧林匹克運(yùn)動會。而這項古老的賽事正是現(xiàn)代奧運(yùn)之父顧拜旦創(chuàng)造現(xiàn)代奧林匹克運(yùn)動會的靈感來源地之一。為了紀(jì)念文洛克奧林匹克運(yùn)動會，倫敦奧運(yùn)會決定將吉祥物命名為“文洛克”。

文洛克頭上的黃燈代表了具有標(biāo)志性意義的倫敦出租車，而手上則戴著代表友誼的奧林匹克手鏈。
