The domestic mouse, another variation of Mus musculus, has found its way into countless homes around the world, becoming both a pet and an object of scientific study.

In an engraved artwork by Cornelis Huyberts titled "The Brick Tower and Musculus at the Siege of Marseilles, " we witness how these creatures were even present during historical events such as Julius Caesar's siege in 49 BC. They scurried amidst Roman siege engines, reminding us that they have always been adaptable survivors. Speaking of historical figures named Musculus, Andreas Musculus emerges from the shadows with his intriguing work called "The Trouser Devil. " Published in 1555, this piece delves into folklore and superstition surrounding mischievous spirits hiding within trousers.
