During the festival, precious gifts were given to the mothers of the nobles, poems were read and compliments were made with nice words.

After Ancient Greece, the Ancient Romans continued this tradition by blending it with their own culture.

In the festival, precious gifts are given to the mothers of the nobles, mothers are glorified with poems and beautiful words, and Cybele is commemorated. This tradition, which spread to many countries all over Europe after Ancient Rome, has been continued with various celebrations, usually with the arrival of spring, although the times have changed in many countries.
