Valentine's
Day
The true history of Valentine begins
in pagan times, as most things do. During the 5th century,
Romans celebrated the festival of Lupercian; a celebration
of sensuality and time for men and women to meet and begin
to know each other (nod, nod, wink...). During
the evening, Romans engaged in the annual rite of passage
to the god Lupercus. Names of teenage women were placed
in a box and picked at random by adolescent men and thus,
that man was assigned that woman. The arrangement lasted
for the duration of a year, after which time another lottery
was staged..
