This variant of the usual bowline knot is known as the Eskimo bowline (Eskimo loop), or the Python pyrine [1] . It differs slightly from the Cossack knot with the free end of the rope brought into the loop.

Arctic explorer Sir John Ross brought the Eskimo sleigh to England, which he gave one Eskimo. The sleigh technique and materials used in their manufacture prove that the unit was invented by the Eskimos on their own. These days, sleighs can be found at the British Museum in London.
This knot is safer than a simple gazebo, especially on synthetic fiber ropes. [one]
