How did the Romans decorate Easter eggs?

Eggs in the ancient world were dyed different colors, but they weren't called Easter eggs. They were used in spring festivals. Easter owes its origins to old German mythology and the name came from "Eostre" who is the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring. The festival of Eostre was celebrated at the vernal equinox. The English name of Easter is newer. When early English Christians wanted others to accept Christianity they decided to use the name Easter for this holiday so that it would natch the name of the old spring festival. The fest of Easter was well established by the second century and Constantine called the Council of Nicaea in 325 to decide the date of Easter. They decided that Easter should fall on Sunday following the first full moon after the vernal equinox.
