and Roman Empires Fertility was celebrated. Women and Men were living together
one year until the next season of Love.
Christian priests decided to change the custom and to
celebrate Saint Valentine instead .He was the Patron Saint of couples.
According to the legend the
Roman Emperor Claudius II, 5th Century, stopped wedding to enable soldiers' enrollment.
At that time the priest
Valentine fought against this decision and decided to celebrate weddings again.
The Emperor killed him a
