In Rome and especially
Vatican City there are a series of solemn events that culminate in
Easter Sunday Mass. During the spring holy days that center around
the vernal equinox there are also many other rites practiced
throughout the country that have their roots in historic pagan
rituals. In addition, the Monday following Easter is an official
Italian holiday called "Pasquetta". The dove is the universal
symbol of the Easter festivities; in addition to appearing at
center stage at many of the folkloristic events, it also takes the
shape of a traditional cake, the "Colomba", competing with the
secular chocolate
eggs as the official food of the season.
