History of Mother's Day

The history of Mother’s day can be traced back to ancient Greece, where the annual spring festival was celebrated in honor of Rhea, the wife of Cronus, and mother to several Gods and Goddesses. In Rome, a similar festival was dedicated to Cybele, the Great mother of Gods. This festival was known as ‘Hilaria’ and is traced back to around 250 BC. In both these festivals, several offerings were made to the goddesses to appease them and to seek their blessings.
