  1. LOS TRES REYES MAGOS

  2. HISTORY, TRADITIONS, and CUSTOMS • The Church's celebration of Epiphany ("manifestation”), the "twelfth night of Christmas," apparently originated in Egypt sometime during the third century, thus the Church's celebration of this feast predates even the celebration of Christmas itself. Epiphany is traditionally celebrated in honor of Christ's birth, of the adoration of the Magi, and the Baptism of Christ, three manifestations of the Lord's divinity. • Because the Magi came form the Orient, many of the traditional foods served on this day are spicy. A cake is often baked for dessert (the name of the cake is Roscón de Reyes, and it is very popular in Spain, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Argentina, and other Spanish-speaking countries, as well as Italy and Greece).
