April Fools' Day Origins a Mystery
The origins of April Fools' Day are shrouded in mystery, experts say.
The most popular theory is that France changed its calendar in the 1500s so that the New Year would begin in January to match the Roman calendar instead of beginning at the start of spring, in late March or earlyApril.
However word of the changetraveled slowly, and many people in rural areas continued to celebrate the New Year in the spring. These country dwellers became known as "April fools," the story goes.
Boese, who has studied the holiday's origin, disagrees with that interpretation.
"[The French] theory is completely wrong, because the day that the French celebrated the beginning of the year legally was Easter day, so it never really was associated with April first," he said.
"Traditionally it was only a legal start to the year—people in France did actually celebrate [the New Year] on January first for aslong as anybody could remember."
Boese believes instead that April Fools' Day simply grew out of age-old European spring festivals of renewal, in which pranks and acamouflaging one's identity are common.
