Our Christmas Customs Through Pagan Roots and Modern Joys

A compact survey of Christmas origins showing how pagan Rome and Norse traditions blended with Christian practice. It traces the dating of Christmas to December 25 by Pope Julius I, notes the Yule log and evergreen decorations, mistletoe’s transformation from ritual to decoration, and the evolution of the Christmas tree from German and medieval roots. It ends with touches on candles, bayberry, carols, and the Christmas card and gift customs.
