It is being said that the history of Easter eggs
dates back to the early days of Christianity, when Mary Magdalene gave
the Roman emperor Tuberous an egg as an Easter present. In many
countries, an egg was the symbol of eternal life. That is why Mary chose
such a present. Surprised by Mary's story of Christ's resurrection, the
emperor said: "Resurrection is as impossible as this egg's turning
red". At that moment, the egg he was holding turned red to prove Mary's
words. Since those days, Russian Orthodox people exchange eggs on Easter
day.
