The notion of a wishing well originates in Europe. It is thought that people believed that gods or deities provided the water source and the tradition of making wishes at a well began with speaking a wish to the god or deity associated with a particular well. As clean water was a precious resource, wells were regarded as a gift from the gods and it became custom to make a wish by the well because of the believe that the god or deity were nearby.
