Christmas Traditions
The ancient Romans loved
celebrations.
The ancient Romans especially enjoyed a holiday that occurred around the 25th of December. This holiday was not called Christmas. It did not honor the birth of Christ. But on this day, the ancient Romans feasted, gave gifts, were merry, and decorated their homes with greenery, customs they borrowed from the ancient Greeks!
Today, Christmas is a religious
holiday.
It is celebrated by Christians around the world to honor the birth of Jesus Christ.
