It originated more than 6,000 years ago in the territories of modern Britain and Ireland. He was celebrated by the Celts - tribes with a rich culture. This people called the holiday differently - Samhain (Samhain) after the name of the God of Darkness. On the night of October 31 to November 1, as the ancient beliefs said, Samhein took the Sun captive and winter came. On this night, the spirits descended to the earth and wandered among the people. In order not to incur their wrath, the Celts made fires, arranged ritual dances and sacrifices.
The traditions of the Celts were so strong that neither the Romans, nor the Saxons and the Franks who inhabited these territories could not destroy Samhain. The holiday changed names, but did not change its essence. And let no one believe in evil spirits these days, but, like thousands of years ago, on October 31, people put on costumes and hold celebrations.
Перевод:
Хеллоуин – один из самых древних праздников в мире.Он возник более 6.000 лет назад на территориях современной Великобритании и Ирландии. Его отмечали кельты – племена с богатейшей культурой. У этого народа праздник назывался по-другому – Самхейн (Самайн) по имени Бога Тьмы. В ночь с 31 октября на 1 ноября, как гласили древние поверья, Самхейн забирал Солнце в плен, и наступала зима. В эту ночь духи спускались на землю и бродили среди людей. Чтобы не навлечь на себя их гнев, кельты разжигали костры, устраивали ритуальные танцы и жертвоприношения.
Традиции кельтов были настолько крепки, что ни римляне, ни саксы и франки, заселявшие эти территории, не смогли уничтожить Самайн. Праздник менял названия, но не менял своей сути. И пусть в наши дни в злых духов никто не верит, но, как и тысячи лет назад, 31 октября люди надевают костюмы и устраивают празднества.
