On Valentine's Day, men and women around the world celebrate those closest to them with gifts designed in the form of traditional hearts.
Although the heart is a tradional symbol of Valentin'es Day nobody is really sure how it took on its current meaning.
Ancient Egyptians, for instance, believed that the heart epitomized life and morality. The Greeks held that it controlled reason, thought and emotion. It's possible that the Greek association of ivy with the god Dionysus led to the heart being identified with romantic love.
It was around the Middle Ages that the heart symbol took on its current meaning. When Valentine's Day originated in England in the 1600s, the heart symbol was the obvious choice for symbol to reflect the new holiday.
