Brief description
The wreath’s legacy as an adornment of veneration entered the modern epoch through many a
varied way. During the spring celebrations, a wreath was used to decorate the universal pillar, the
Maypole. The image of sacred twigs and green foliage woven together and wrapped around a pole,
represents the planets orbiting around the solar center. During Roman times wreaths were worn as a
crown of merit. |
