Much like Day of the Dead celebrations, the Christian feast of All Hallows' Eve, according to some scholars, incorporates traditions from pagan harvest festivals and festivals honouring the dead, particularly the Celtic Samhain; other scholars maintain that the feast originated entirely independently of Samhain.EtymologyThe word Halloween is first attested in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows'-Even ("evening"), that is, the night before All Hallows' Day. Although the phrase All Hallows' is found in Old English (ealra halgena mssedg, mass-day of all saints), All-Hallows-Even is itself not attested until 1556.Pre-Christian influencesAccording to some scholars, the observance of Halloween or All Hallows' Eve combines pre-Christian and Christian traditions; other scholars maintain "that Hallowe'en, as the eve of All Saints' Day, originated entirely independently of Samhain and some question the existence of a specific pan-Celtic religious festival which took place on 31st October/1st November."by: Erica Dayane The mascot of the Pan-American Games in Guadalajara in 2011 is already set.
