Edit
A portable light source, designed to be carried or hung up, typically with an enclosure to protect it from the wind when used outdoors.
Traditional lanterns use a candle or a wick dipped in oil, while modern lanterns use battery-powered lights.
For fixed outdoors lighting, use stone lantern, wooden lantern, or lamppost accordingly. Despite the name, the former two do not fall under this tag.
