THE CARNIVAL
He historical origin of Carnival is also obscure. It possibly has its roots in a
primitive festival honouring the beginning of the new year and the rebirth
of nature, though it is also possible that the beginnings of Carnival in Italy
may be linked to the pagan Saturnalian festival of ancient Rome.
Many years ago, peasants used to gather in the summer to celebrate good
harvests and ask the gods to protect them from evil spirits. Around a
bonfire the men painted themselves and covered their faces with masks
while they danced.
However, the first Carnival party known as such took place in Egypt. For a
few days the Egyptians hid the social class to which they belonged with a
mask on their faces. And they gathered in the streets to sing and dance.
Later the Romans began to celebrate this festival at the beginning of
spring. They did it in honor of Momo, the god of fun and ridicule.
