A Brief History:
Origination: Ancient Romans came up with a the name in 3rd Century to honor Emperor Claudius II’s action of executing two men named Valentine on a February 14th in slightly different years. Also the Pagan festival derived from members of the Luperci, an order of Roman priests, gathered in a sacred cave where the infants Romulus and Remus (original founders of Rome) were cared for by a she-wolf or lupa.
Renewal by the Catholic Church: The action was revisited by the Catholic Church with the celebration of St. Valentine’s Day. According to the legend, Valentine’s Day is celebrated marking the death anniversary of a priest called Saint Valentine, who defied an emperor’s orders, then secretly married couples in order to spare husbands from war. He died in mid-February in the year 270 A.D.
Celebrated: February 14th every year.
Nowadays: These days, we celebrate with both cupid and hearts–along with some chocolates.
