Boar's Head Feast : ウィキペディア英語版 | Boar's Head Feast
The Boar's Head Feast is probably the oldest continuing festival of the Christmas season. ==History== This pageant is rooted in ancient times when the boar was sovereign of the forest. A ferocious beast, and menace to humans, it was hunted as a public enemy. At Roman feasts, boar was the first dish served. Roasted boar was a staple of medieval banquets. As Christian beliefs overtook pagan customs in Europe, the presentation of a boar's head at Christmas came to symbolize the triumph of the Christ Child over sin.
