The Christian celebration of All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day stems from a belief that there is a powerful spiritual bond between those in heaven (the "[[Church triumphant]]"), and the living (the "[[Church militant]]"). In [[Catholic]] theology, the day commemorates all those who have attained the [[beatific vision]] in Heaven. In [[Methodist]] theology, All Saints Day revolves around "giving God solemn thanks for the lives and deaths of his [[Saints in Methodism|saints]]", including those who are "famous or obscure".<ref name="Iovino2015">{{cite web|url=http://www.umc.org/what-we-believe/all-saints-day-a-holy-day-john-wesley-loved|title=All Saints Day: A holy day John Wesley loved |last=Iovino|first=Joe|date=28 October 2015|publisher=[[The United Methodist Church]]|language=English|accessdate=20 October 2016}}</ref> As such, individuals throughout the Church Universal are honoured, such as [[Paul the Apostle]], [[Augustine of Hippo]] and [[John Wesley]], in addition to individuals who have personally led one to faith in Jesus, such as one's grandmother or friend.<ref name="Iovino2015" /> ==Combined celebrations of All Saints and All Souls== In some countries, All Saints' Day is a public holiday, but [[All Souls' Day]] is not.

The Feast of All Saints achieved greater prominence in the 9th century, in the reign of the [[Byzantine Emperor]] [[Leo VI the Wise|Leo VI "the Wise"]] (866–911). His wife, Empress [[Theophano Martiniake|Theophano]] lived a devout life. After her death in 893,<ref>The date in ''[[Patriarch Euthymius I of Constantinople|Vita Euthymii]]'', not printed until 1888 "makes it seem practically (though not absolutely) certain that she died on 10 Nov. 893"{{which calendar?|date=November 2019}}.{{harv|Downey|1956|pp=301–305}}</ref> her husband built a church, intending to dedicate it to her. When he was forbidden to do so, he decided to dedicate it to "All Saints", so that if his wife were in fact one of the righteous, she would also be honoured whenever the feast was celebrated.{{sfn|Downey|1956|pp=301–305}} According to tradition, it was Leo who expanded the feast from a commemoration of All Martyrs to a general commemoration of All Saints, whether martyrs or not. This Sunday marks the close of the [[Paschal cycle|Paschal season]]. To the normal Sunday services are added special scriptural readings and hymns to all the saints (known and unknown) from the [[Pentecostarion]]. In the late spring, the Sunday following Pentecost Saturday (50 days after Easter) is set aside as a commemoration of all locally venerated saints, such as "All Saints of America", "All Saints of [[Mount Athos]]", etc. The third Sunday after Pentecost may be observed for even more localised saints, such as "All Saints of [[St. Petersburg]]", or for saints of a particular type, such as "[[Persecution of Christians#Ottoman Empire and Turkey|New Martyrs of the Turkish Yoke]]". In addition to the Mondays mentioned above, Saturdays throughout the year are days for general commemoration of all saints, and special hymns to all saints are chanted from the [[Octoechos (liturgy)|Octoechos]]. ===Lebanon=== The celebration of 1 November in Lebanon as a holiday reflects the influence of Western Catholic orders present in Lebanon and is not [[Maronite]] in origin. The traditional Maronite feast equivalent to the honor of all saints in their liturgical calendar is one of three Sundays in preparation for Lent called the Sunday of the Righteous and the Just. The following Sunday is the Sunday of the Faithful Departed (similar to All Souls Day in Western calendar). ===East Syriac tradition=== In East Syriac tradition the All Saints Day celebration falls on the first Friday after resurrection Sunday.<ref name="SMCLIT" /> This is because all departed faithful are saved by the blood of Jesus and they resurrected with the Christ. Normally in east Syriac liturgy the departed souls are remembered on Friday. Church celebrates All souls day on Friday before the beginning of Great lent or Great Fast.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nasranifoundation.org/calendar/dr/reflection_9fri_denha.html|title= Commemoration of the Departed Faithful|work=Nasrani Foundation}}</ref> ==In Western Europe, the Americas and the Philippines== The Christian holiday of All Saints' Day falls on 1 November, followed by [[All Souls' Day]] on 2 November, and is currently a Solemnity in the [[Roman Rite]] of the Catholic Church, a [[Calendar of Saints (Lutheran)|Festival]] in the [[Lutheran Church]]es, as well as a [[Principal Feast]] of the Anglican Communion. ===History=== During the 5th century, [[St. Maximus of Turin]] preached annually on the Sunday after Pentecost, the same day being used in many places in the East, in honor of all martyrs in what is today Northern Italy. The [[Comes of Würzburg]], the earliest existing ecclesiastical reading list, dating to the late 6th or early 7th century in what is today Germany, lists this the Sunday after Pentecost as "dominica in natale sanctorum" or "Sunday of the Nativity of the Saints". By this time, the commemoration had expanded to include all saints whether or not they were martyred.<ref name="new-catholic-2nd-all-saints"/> On 13 May 609 or 610, [[Pope Boniface IV]] consecrated the [[Pantheon, Rome|Pantheon at Rome]] to the Blessed Virgin and all the martyrs, ordering an anniversary;<ref name="mershman"/> the feast of the ''dedication Sanctae Mariae ad Martyres'' has been celebrated at Rome ever since. There is evidence that from the 5th to the 7th centuries there existed in certain places and at sporadic intervals a feast date on 13 May to celebrate the holy martyrs.<ref>C. Smith ''The New Catholic Encyclopedia'' 1967: ''s.v.'' "Feast of All Saints", p. 318.</ref> The origin of All Saints' Day cannot be traced with certainty, and it has been observed on various days in different places. However, there are some who maintain the belief that it has origins in the [[Religion in ancient Rome|pagan]] observation of 13 May{{which calendar?|date=November 2019}}, the [[Lemuria (festival)|Feast of the Lemures]], in which the malevolent and restless spirits of the dead were propitiated. Some liturgiologists base the idea that this ''Lemuria'' festival was the origin of that of All Saints on their identical dates and on the similar theme of "all the dead".<ref>For example, Violet Alford ("The Cat Saint", ''Folklore'' '''52'''.3 [September 1941:161–183] p. 181 note 56) observes that "Saints were often confounded with the [[Lares]] or Dead. Repasts for both were prepared in early Christian times, and All Saints' Day was transferred in 835 to November 1st from one of the days in May which were the old Lemuralia"; Alford notes [[Pierre Saintyves]], ''Les saints successeurs des dieux'', Paris 1906 (''sic'', i.e. 1907).</ref> Meanwhile, others consider that 13 May was perhaps deliberately chosen by the Pope because of its celebration already established in the East.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Saunders|first1=William|title=All Saints and All Souls|url=http://www.catholiceducation.org/en/culture/catholic-contributions/all-saints-and-all-souls.html|website=catholiceducation.org|accessdate=18 September 2016}}</ref> The feast of All Saints, on its current date, is traced to the foundation by [[Pope Gregory III]] (731–741) of an [[oratory (worship)|oratory]] in [[Old St. Peter's Basilica|St. Peter's]] for the relics "of the holy apostles and of all saints, martyrs and confessors, of all the just made perfect who are at rest throughout the world",{{sfn|Chisholm|1911}} with the date moved to {{OldStyleDateNY|October 27|November 1}} and 13 May feast suppressed.<ref>"All Saints' Day", ''The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church'', 3rd edition, ed. E. A. Livingstone (Oxford: [[Oxford University Press]], 1997), 41–42; ''The New Catholic Encyclopedia'', ''eo.loc''.</ref> During the late 8th century, lay religious scholar [[Alcuin of York]] used his influence with [[Charlemagne]] to introduce the Irish-Northumbrian celebration of the Feast of All Saints to the [[Frankish Kingdom]].<ref name="new-catholic-2nd-alcuin">{{cite book |title=New Catholic Encyclopedia |date=2003 |isbn=0-7876-4004-2 |pages=242–243 |edition=Second}}</ref> In 798, [[Archbishop]] [[Arno of Salzburg]] called for a festival of all saints on {{OldStyleDateNY|October 27|November 1}} for Southeast Germany, for which he was subsequently commended by Alucin.<ref name="new-catholic-2nd-all-saints"/> The {{OldStyleDateNY|October 27|November 1}} All Saints Day was made a day of obligation throughout the [[Franks|Frankish]] empire in 835, by a decree of [[Louis the Pious]], issued "at the instance of [[Pope Gregory IV]] and with the assent of all the bishops",{{sfn|Chisholm|1911}} which confirmed its celebration on {{OldStyleDateNY|October 27|November 1}}. Under the rule of Charlemagne and his successors, the Frankish Kingdom expanded into the [[Carolingian Empire]] and subsequently the [[Holy Roman Empire]]. The 9th century Félire Óengusso ("Martyrology of Óengus") by [[Óengus of Tallaght]] attests a {{OldStyleDateNY|April 15|April 20}} celebration in Rome for all the saints of Europe as well as a 1 November celebration in Ireland for all saints.<ref name="new-catholic-2nd-all-saints"/> [[Sicard of Cremona]], a scholar who lived in the 12th and 13th centuries, proposed that [[Pope Gregory VII]] (1073–85) suppressed the feast of May 13 in favor of {{OldStyleDateNY|October 27|November 1}}. By the 12th century, May 13 had been removed from liturgical books.<ref name="new-catholic-2nd-all-saints"/> The All Saints [[Octave (liturgy)|octave]] was added by [[Pope Sixtus IV]] (1471–1484).{{sfn|Chisholm|1911}} Both the All Saints vigil and the octave were suppressed by the reforms of 1955.<ref name="new-catholic-2nd-all-saints"/> ===Proposed connection to Samhain=== {{See also|Samhain}} Some scholars have proposed that churches in the British Isles began celebrating All Saints on 1 November at the beginning of the 8th century to coincide with or replace the Celtic festival of [[Samhain]]. James Frazer represents this school of thought by arguing that 1 November was chosen because Samhain was the date of the Celtic festival of the dead.<ref>Pseudo-Bede, ''Homiliae subdititiae''; John Hennig, 'The Meaning of All the Saints', ''Mediaeval Studies'' 10 (1948), 147–61.</ref><ref>"All Saints Day", ''The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church'', 3rd edition, ed.

Hutton proposes that 1 November was a Frankish and Germanic rather than a Celtic cultural referent.<ref>{{cite book | last = Hutton | first = Ronald | authorlink = Ronald Hutton | title = Stations of the Sun: A History of the Ritual Year in Britain | year = 1996 | publisher = Oxford Paperbacks | location = New York | isbn = 0192854488 | url-access = registration | url = https://archive.org/details/stationsofsunhis0000hutt }}</ref> ===Protestant observances=== The festival was retained after the [[Protestant Reformation|Reformation]] in the calendar of the [[Anglican Church]] and in many [[Lutheranism|Lutheran]] churches.{{sfn|Chisholm|1911}} In the Lutheran churches, such as the [[Church of Sweden]], it assumes a role of general commemoration of the dead. In the [[Holidays in Sweden|Swedish calendar]], the observance takes place on the Saturday between 31 October and 6 November. In many Lutheran Churches, it is moved to the first Sunday of November. In the [[Church of England]], [[mother church]] of the [[Anglican Communion]], it is a [[Principal Feast]] and may be celebrated either on 1 November or on the Sunday between 30 October and 5 November. It is also celebrated by other [[Protestants]] of the English tradition, such as the [[United Church of Canada]], the [[Methodist]] churches and the [[Wesleyan Church]]. Protestants generally commemorate all Christians, living and deceased, on All Saints' Day; if they observe All Saints Day at all, they use it to remember all Christians both past and present. In the [[United Methodist Church]], All Saints' Day is celebrated on the first Sunday in November. It is held, not only to remember Saints, but also to remember all those who have died who were members of the local church congregation. In some congregations, a candle is lit by the [[Acolyte]] as each person's name is called out by the clergy. Prayers and responsive readings may accompany the event. Often, the names of those who have died in the past year are affixed to a memorial plaque. In many Lutheran churches, All Saints' Day is celebrated the Sunday after Reformation is celebrated (the date for Reformation is 31 October, so Reformation Sunday is celebrated on or before 31 October). In most congregations, the festival is marked as an occasion to remember the dead. The names of those who have died from the congregation within the last year are read during worship and a bell is tolled, a chime is played or a candle is lit for each name read. While the dead are solemnly remembered during worship on All Saints' Sunday, the festival is ultimately a celebration of [[Atonement in Christianity|Christ's victory over death]]. In English-speaking countries, services often include the singing of the traditional hymn "[[For All the Saints]]" by [[Walsham How]]. The most familiar tune for this hymn is ''Sine Nomine'' by [[Ralph Vaughan Williams]]. Other hymns that are popularly sung during corporate worship on this day are "[[I Sing a Song of the Saints of God]]" and "[[Ye Watchers and Ye Holy Ones]]". ==Customs== [[File:Celebración de Todos los Santos, cementerio de la Santa Cruz, Gniezno, Polonia, 2017-11-01, DD 07-09 HDR.jpg|thumb|250px|All Saints' Day at a cemetery in [[Gniezno]], Poland – flowers and candles placed to honor deceased relatives (2017)]] ===Europe=== ====France==== In France, and throughout the [[Francophone]] world, the day is known as ''La Toussaint''. Flowers (especially in [[Chrysanthemum]]s), or wreaths called 'couronnes de toussaints' are placed at each tomb or grave. The following day, 2 November ([[All Souls' Day]]) is called ''Le jour des morts'', the Day of the Dead.<ref name="couleur-toussaint"/> ====Belgium==== In Belgium, "Toussaint" or "Allerheiligen" is a public holiday.

Families remember their dead with religious observances and visits to the cemetery.

Filipinos traditionally observe this day by visiting the family dead to clean and repair their tombs. Offerings of prayers, flowers, candles,<ref name="guardian-world-saints">[https://www.theguardian.com/world/gallery/2010/nov/01/all-saints-day "All Saints Day around the world", ''Guardian Weekly'', 1 November 2010]</ref> and food. [[Chinese Filipinos]] additionally burn [[joss stick|incense]] and ''[[joss paper|kim]]''. Many also spend the day and ensuing night holding reunions at the cemetery with feasts and merriment. ====Pangangaluluwa trick-or-treat traditions==== Though Halloween has usually been seen as an American influence in the Philippines, the country's trick-or-treat traditions during Undas (from the Spanish "Honras", meaning honours, as in "with honors") are actually much older. This tradition was derived from the pre-colonial tradition called pangangaluwa. Pangangaluluwa (from "kaluluwa" or spirit double) was a practice of early Filipinos who sang from house to house swathed in blankets pretending to be ghosts of ancestors. If the owner of the house failed to give biko or rice cakes to the "nangangaluluwa", the "spirits" would play tricks (try to steal slippers or other objects left outside the house by members of the family or run off with the owner's chickens). Pangangaluluwa practices are still seen in rural areas. ====Cemetery and reunion practices==== During Undas, family members visit the cemetery where the body of the loved ones rest. It is believed that by going to the cemetery and offering food, candles, flowers, and sometimes incense sticks, the spirit of the loved one is remembered and appeased. Contrary to common belief, this visitation practice is not an imported tradition. Prior to the establishment of coffins, pre-colonial Filipinos were already practicing such a tradition of visiting burial caves throughout the archipelago as confirmed by a research conducted by the [[University of the Philippines]]. The tradition of "atang" or "hain" is also practiced, where food and other offerings are placed near the grave site. If the family cannot go to the grave site, a specific area in the house is provided for the offering. The exact date of Undas today, 1 November, is not a pre-colonial observance date but an influence from Mexico, where the same day is known as the Day of the Dead. Pre-colonial Filipinos preferred going to the burial caves of the departed occasionally as they believed that aswang (half-vampire half-werewolf beings) would take the corpse of the dead if the body was not properly guarded. The protection of the body of the loved one is called "paglalamay". However, in some communities, this paglalamay tradition is non-existent and is replaced by other pre-colonial traditions unique to each community. The Undas is also seen as a family reunion, where family members coming from various regions go back to their hometown to visit the grave of loved ones. Family members are expected to remain beside the grave for the entire day and socialize with each other to mend bonds and enhance family relations. In some cases, family members going to certain burial sites exceed one hundred people. Fighting in any form is prohibited during Undas. ====Roles of children==== Children have important roles during Undas. Children are allowed to play with melted candles in front of grave sites and turn the melted wax from the candles into round wax balls. The round balls of wax symbolize the affirmation that everything goes back to where it began, as the living will go back to ash, where everything started. In some cases, families also light candles at the front door of the home. The number of candles is equivalent to the number of departed loved ones. It is believed that this tradition aids departed loved ones and provide them with a happy path to the afterlife.<ref>http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/lifestyle/artandculture/386063/contemporary-undas-practices-derived-from-pre-colonial-influence-beliefs-cultural-anthropologist/story/</ref><ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.philstar.com/opinion/2013/10/31/1251413/undas-filipino-culture | title=Undas in Filipino culture | newspaper=The Philippine Star | date=31 October 2013 | first=Elfren S. | last=Cruz | accessdate=17 February 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.spot.ph/newsfeatures/the-latest-news-features/64114/10-things-pinoys-do-during-undas | title=10 Things Pinoys Do During Undas | date=29 October 2015 | first=Mimi | last=Miaco | publisher=Spot | accessdate=6 December 2018 }}</ref> ==See also== {{Portal|Christianity}} * [[1755 Lisbon earthquake]] which occurred on this day and had a great effect on society and philosophy * [[Portal:Catholicism/Patron Archive/November 1|All Saints' Day, patron saint archive]] * [[International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church]] * [[Dziady]] * [[Irish calendar]] * [[Litany of the Saints]] * [[Veneration of the dead]] ==Notes== {{reflist}} ;Attribution * {{EB1911|wstitle=All Saints, Festival of |volume=1}} ==Further reading== * Langgärtner, Georg.

James Frazer represents this school of thought by arguing that 1 November was chosen because Samhain was the date of the Celtic festival of the dead.<ref>Pseudo-Bede, ''Homiliae subdititiae''; John Hennig, 'The Meaning of All the Saints', ''Mediaeval Studies'' 10 (1948), 147–61.</ref><ref>"All Saints Day", ''The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church'', 3rd edition, ed.

In the [[Holidays in Sweden|Swedish calendar]], the observance takes place on the Saturday between 31 October and 6 November. In many Lutheran Churches, it is moved to the first Sunday of November. In the [[Church of England]], [[mother church]] of the [[Anglican Communion]], it is a [[Principal Feast]] and may be celebrated either on 1 November or on the Sunday between 30 October and 5 November. It is also celebrated by other [[Protestants]] of the English tradition, such as the [[United Church of Canada]], the [[Methodist]] churches and the [[Wesleyan Church]]. Protestants generally commemorate all Christians, living and deceased, on All Saints' Day; if they observe All Saints Day at all, they use it to remember all Christians both past and present. In the [[United Methodist Church]], All Saints' Day is celebrated on the first Sunday in November. It is held, not only to remember Saints, but also to remember all those who have died who were members of the local church congregation. In some congregations, a candle is lit by the [[Acolyte]] as each person's name is called out by the clergy. Prayers and responsive readings may accompany the event. Often, the names of those who have died in the past year are affixed to a memorial plaque. In many Lutheran churches, All Saints' Day is celebrated the Sunday after Reformation is celebrated (the date for Reformation is 31 October, so Reformation Sunday is celebrated on or before 31 October). In most congregations, the festival is marked as an occasion to remember the dead. The names of those who have died from the congregation within the last year are read during worship and a bell is tolled, a chime is played or a candle is lit for each name read. While the dead are solemnly remembered during worship on All Saints' Sunday, the festival is ultimately a celebration of [[Atonement in Christianity|Christ's victory over death]]. In English-speaking countries, services often include the singing of the traditional hymn "[[For All the Saints]]" by [[Walsham How]]. The most familiar tune for this hymn is ''Sine Nomine'' by [[Ralph Vaughan Williams]]. Other hymns that are popularly sung during corporate worship on this day are "[[I Sing a Song of the Saints of God]]" and "[[Ye Watchers and Ye Holy Ones]]". ==Customs== [[File:Celebración de Todos los Santos, cementerio de la Santa Cruz, Gniezno, Polonia, 2017-11-01, DD 07-09 HDR.jpg|thumb|250px|All Saints' Day at a cemetery in [[Gniezno]], Poland – flowers and candles placed to honor deceased relatives (2017)]] ===Europe=== ====France==== In France, and throughout the [[Francophone]] world, the day is known as ''La Toussaint''. Flowers (especially in [[Chrysanthemum]]s), or wreaths called 'couronnes de toussaints' are placed at each tomb or grave.

To the normal Sunday services are added special scriptural readings and hymns to all the saints (known and unknown) from the [[Pentecostarion]]. - -In the late spring, the Sunday following Pentecost Saturday (50 days after Easter) is set aside as a commemoration of all locally venerated saints, such as "All Saints of America", "All Saints of [[Mount Athos]]", etc. The third Sunday after Pentecost may be observed for even more localised saints, such as "All Saints of [[St. Petersburg]]", or for saints of a particular type, such as "[[Persecution of Christians#Ottoman Empire and Turkey|New Martyrs of the Turkish Yoke]]". - -In addition to the Mondays mentioned above, Saturdays throughout the year are days for general commemoration of all saints, and special hymns to all saints are chanted from the [[Octoechos (liturgy)|Octoechos]]. - -===Lebanon=== -The celebration of 1 November in Lebanon as a holiday reflects the influence of Western Catholic orders present in Lebanon and is not [[Maronite]] in origin. The traditional Maronite feast equivalent to the honor of all saints in their liturgical calendar is one of three Sundays in preparation for Lent called the Sunday of the Righteous and the Just. The following Sunday is the Sunday of the Faithful Departed (similar to All Souls Day in Western calendar). - -===East Syriac tradition=== -In East Syriac tradition the All Saints Day celebration falls on the first Friday after resurrection Sunday.<ref name="SMCLIT" /> This is because all departed faithful are saved by the blood of Jesus and they resurrected with the Christ.

The [[Comes of Würzburg]], the earliest existing ecclesiastical reading list, dating to the late 6th or early 7th century in what is today Germany, lists this the Sunday after Pentecost as "dominica in natale sanctorum" or "Sunday of the Nativity of the Saints". By this time, the commemoration had expanded to include all saints whether or not they were martyred.<ref name="new-catholic-2nd-all-saints"/> - -On 13 May 609 or 610, [[Pope Boniface IV]] consecrated the [[Pantheon, Rome|Pantheon at Rome]] to the Blessed Virgin and all the martyrs, ordering an anniversary;<ref name="mershman"/> the feast of the ''dedication Sanctae Mariae ad Martyres'' has been celebrated at Rome ever since. There is evidence that from the 5th to the 7th centuries there existed in certain places and at sporadic intervals a feast date on 13 May to celebrate the holy martyrs.<ref>C. Smith ''The New Catholic Encyclopedia'' 1967: ''s.v.'' "Feast of All Saints", p. 318.</ref> The origin of All Saints' Day cannot be traced with certainty, and it has been observed on various days in different places. However, there are some who maintain the belief that it has origins in the [[Religion in ancient Rome|pagan]] observation of 13 May{{which calendar?|date=November 2019}}, the [[Lemuria (festival)|Feast of the Lemures]], in which the malevolent and restless spirits of the dead were propitiated. Some liturgiologists base the idea that this ''Lemuria'' festival was the origin of that of All Saints on their identical dates and on the similar theme of "all the dead".<ref>For example, Violet Alford ("The Cat Saint", ''Folklore'' '''52'''.3 [September 1941:161–183] p. 181 note 56) observes that "Saints were often confounded with the [[Lares]] or Dead. Repasts for both were prepared in early Christian times, and All Saints' Day was transferred in 835 to November 1st from one of the days in May which were the old Lemuralia"; Alford notes [[Pierre Saintyves]], ''Les saints successeurs des dieux'', Paris 1906 (''sic'', i.e. 1907).</ref> Meanwhile, others consider that 13 May was perhaps deliberately chosen by the Pope because of its celebration already established in the East.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Saunders|first1=William|title=All Saints and All Souls|url=http://www.catholiceducation.org/en/culture/catholic-contributions/all-saints-and-all-souls.html|website=catholiceducation.org|accessdate=18 September 2016}}</ref> +{{short description|Christian feast day}}asts for both were prepared in early Christian times, and All Saints' Day was transferred in 835 to November 1st from one of the days in May which were the old Lemuralia"; Alford notes [[Pierre Saintyves]], ''Les saints successeurs des dieux'', Paris 1906 (''sic'', i.e. 1907).</ref> Meanwhile, others consider that 13 May was perhaps deliberately chosen by the Pope because of its celebration already established in the East.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Saunders|first1=William|title=All Saints and All Souls|url=http://www.catholiceducation.org/en/culture/catholic-contributions/all-saints-and-all-souls.html|website=catholiceducation.org|accessdate=18 September 2016}}</ref> The feast of All Saints, on its current date, is traced to the foundation by [[Pope Gregory III]] (731–741) of an [[oratory (worship)|oratory]] in [[Old St. Peter's Basilica|St. Peter's]] for the relics "of the holy apostles and of all saints, martyrs and confessors, of all the just made perfect who are at rest throughout the world",{{sfn|Chisholm|1911}} with the date moved to {{OldStyleDateNY|October 27|November 1}} and 13 May feast suppressed.<ref>"All Saints' Day", ''The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church'', 3rd edition, ed.

This tradition was derived from the pre-colonial tradition called pangangaluwa. Pangangaluluwa (from "kaluluwa" or spirit double) was a practice of early Filipinos who sang from house to house swathed in blankets pretending to be ghosts of ancestors. If the owner of the house failed to give biko or rice cakes to the "nangangaluluwa", the "spirits" would play tricks (try to steal slippers or other objects left outside the house by members of the family or run off with the owner's chickens). Pangangaluluwa practices are still seen in rural areas. </p> <h4><span class="mw-headline" id="Cemetery_and_reunion_practices">Cemetery and reunion practices</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=All_Saints%27_Day&amp;action=edit&amp;section=16" title="Edit section: Cemetery and reunion practices">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h4> <p>During Undas, family members visit the cemetery where the body of the loved ones rest. It is believed that by going to the cemetery and offering food, candles, flowers, and sometimes incense sticks, the spirit of the loved one is remembered and appeased. Contrary to common belief, this visitation practice is not an imported tradition. Prior to the establishment of coffins, pre-colonial Filipinos were already practicing such a tradition of visiting burial caves throughout the archipelago as confirmed by a research conducted by the <a href="/wiki/University_of_the_Philippines" title="University of the Philippines">University of the Philippines</a>. The tradition of "atang" or "hain" is also practiced, where food and other offerings are placed near the grave site. If the family cannot go to the grave site, a specific area in the house is provided for the offering. </p><p>The exact date of Undas today, 1 November, is not a pre-colonial observance date but an influence from Mexico, where the same day is known as the Day of the Dead. Pre-colonial Filipinos preferred going to the burial caves of the departed occasionally as they believed that aswang (half-vampire half-werewolf beings) would take the corpse of the dead if the body was not properly guarded. The protection of the body of the loved one is called "paglalamay". However, in some communities, this paglalamay tradition is non-existent and is replaced by other pre-colonial traditions unique to each community. </p><p>The Undas is also seen as a family reunion, where family members coming from various regions go back to their hometown to visit the grave of loved ones. Family members are expected to remain beside the grave for the entire day and socialize with each other to mend bonds and enhance family relations. In some cases, family members going to certain burial sites exceed one hundred people. Fighting in any form is prohibited during Undas. </p> <h4><span class="mw-headline" id="Roles_of_children">Roles of children</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=All_Saints%27_Day&amp;action=edit&amp;section=17" title="Edit section: Roles of children">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h4> <p>Children have important roles during Undas. Children are allowed to play with melted candles in front of grave sites and turn the melted wax from the candles into round wax balls. The round balls of wax symbolize the affirmation that everything goes back to where it began, as the living will go back to ash, where everything started. In some cases, families also light candles at the front door of the home. The number of candles is equivalent to the number of departed loved ones.
