THE HISTORY OF LANTERN ART

In summary, the first lantern ever produced happened in the Mediterranean region – a basic lantern that was used simply for daily necessities – the art of the lantern began to emerge during Egyptian civilization – and advanced even further within Greek and Roman civilization. The first lantern festival that ever took place occurred in Ancient Egypt – and later became a tradition within the Roman Empire – which was called Lychnapsia – “a festival of lamps that occur on August 12, widely regarded by scholars as having been held in honor of Isis. It was thus one of several official Roman holidays and observances that publicly linked the cult of Isis with Imperial cult.”  Based on the multicultural society of the Roman Empire – a gateway to the world, the lamp festival tradition (among other things) were adopted by other cultures and shared among their local communities – which eventually was introduced to the Asian continent – whereby, the first lantern festival in Asia, occurred in India – and 500 years later, it made its way into Chinese culture – and the tradition continued.

THE HISTORY OF LANTERN FESTIVALS

The very first lantern festivals date back anywhere between 3,000 – 4000 BC, originating in Ancient Egypt, where numerous lamp festivals were celebrated.

If we examine the history of lantern celebrations in Ancient Asia, we will find that the 2 most historic traditions that involve the celebration of lights and lamps, which are still being practiced today, would be Diwali and Hanukkah. Diwali was introduced in Ancient India around 527 BC, meanwhile the Ancient Israelites (Asia minor) began their tradition of Festival of Lights after they defeated the Greeks around 164 BC.  Many years later, approximately 300-400 years later, the original lamp celebrations of Asia eventually began to influence Chinese culture.
