Valentine Day Custom Traced to Ancient Times
The custom of sending Valentines dates back at least two centuries and perhaps to antediluvian days. St. Valentine, a bishop martyred under Claudius II or Aurelian in 271 A D on February 14, is linked to the day. One theory says birds begin mating then, inspiring lovers to exchange notes. Another tale ties it to the Roman Feast of Lupercalia observed in some areas.
