The pagan rite of Lupercalia was an ancient Roman festival held on February 15th. It was a celebration of fertility and purification, honoring the Roman god Lupercus, the god of shepherds and fertility, as well as the founding of Rome by Romulus and Remus, mythological twin brothers who were nursed by a she-wolf. During Lupercalia, young men called Luperci, dressed in goatskin loincloths, would run through the streets of Rome. Whipping spectators with strips of goat hide, known as februa, they believed this act would ward off evil spirits, purify the city, and promote fertility. Women would voluntarily expose themselves to be struck by the Luperci in the belief that it would increase their chances of conception and ensure a healthy pregnancy. The festival of Lupercalia also included other festivities such as feasting, sacrifices, and matchmaking.

The goat hides were then cut into thongs and used later in the whipping ceremony. After the sacrifices, the Luperci would divide into two groups and run through the city, stopping at various landmarks and whipping any women they encountered. This act of being struck by the goatskin thongs was considered a blessing and a way to ensure fertility. It was even believed that being struck by the Luperci's whips could ease the pain of childbirth. Despite its pagan origins, the Lupercalia festival survived into the early years of Christianity. However, by the 5th century, the Christian church sought to suppress and replace the pagan rituals with Christian traditions. In 496 AD, Pope Gelasius I declared that Lupercalia be replaced by the Feast of the Purification of the Virgin Mary, also known as Candlemas, which is celebrated on February 2nd. In conclusion, the pagan rite of Lupercalia was an ancient Roman festival that celebrated fertility, purification, and the founding of Rome. It involved young men dressed in goatskin loincloths running through the streets, whipping spectators to ward off evil spirits and promote fertility. While the festival survived into the early years of Christianity, it was eventually replaced by the Feast of the Purification of the Virgin Mary..
