"During Saturnalia, work and business came to a halt. Schools and courts of law closed, and the normal social patterns were suspended.
People decorated their homes with wreaths and other greenery,...
.... Instead of working, Romans spent Saturnalia gambling, singing, playing music, feasting, socializing and giving each other gifts."
In church, the Roman colour purple is used - for the candle and the vestments - at this time of year. |
