According to academics, it was a tribute to the "King of the dead". Recent studies highlight that Samhain had among its biggest marks the bonfires and celebrated the abundance of food after the harvest season. The problem with this theory is that it is based on little evidence beyond the time of year the festivals were held. The celebration, language and meaning of the October festival changed by region. The Welsh celebrated, for example, the "Calan Gaeaf". There are common points between this festival held in Wales and the predominantly Irish and Scottish celebration of Samhain, but there are many differences as well. In the mid-8th century, Pope Gregory 3rd changed the date of All Saints' Day from May 13th - the date of the Roman festival of the dead - to November 1st, the date of Samhain. It is uncertain whether Gregory 3 or his successor, Gregory 4, made the All Saints' Day celebration mandatory in an attempt to "Christianize" Samhain. But whatever their reasons, the new date for this day brought the Christian celebration of the saints and Samhain together. Thus, pagan and Christian traditions ended up mixing.
