Italian expert links first Christmas celebration to pagan shrine in Rome

Imagine how these archaeologists must have felt when they unearthed an ancient grotto where the "mythological" Remus and Romulus were nursed by a she-wolf. Perhaps they were not as mythological as suspected...

The ancient Pagans worshiped many gods and goddesses. When Christianity came along they felt that these "ignorant Pagans" were at risk of eternal damnation so they tried to save them.



A church was almost always built near or on top of a previously Pagan worship site. This is the case with this new discovery as well. The archaeologists may have uncovered the first place Christmas was ever celebrated... check out the article-it's really neat!
