Christmas is really a Christianization of European Pagan holiday celebrations. The Roman Feast of Saturnalia was originally December 25. When the Romans became Christian, so did their holidays. Feasting and drinking were part of Saturnalia; so was the giving of gifts.

For Germanic Europeans, the festival of Yule included the Yule log, the Yule boar, and Yule singing. Yule is now considered synonymous with Christmas.

Other traditions such as mistletoe and the Christmas tree have Pagan origins.
