Arguably, Christmas began with the birth of Jesus around 4 BC. The first Christmas presents may have been gifts brought to the newborn child.

However, the celebration now associated with Christmas began as seasonal rites among various non-Christian religious groups. It was not until the Middle Ages that Christmas became a traditional holiday of the Roman Catholic Church.
