Kiss

WHEN DID THE CUSTOM OF KISSING START?


Hmm…Kissing was practiced in ancient times to show respect for those above you. In ancient Rome the people of the upper class greeted each other with a kiss on the mouth or eye. But nowadays kissing on the lips or cheek is a sign of love and trust between family members, friends, and couples. At a wedding, the kiss is a special symbol of the bond between the husband and wife.





In some tribes in Africa practiced the custom of kissing the ground the chief has walked on. It’s one way for tribe members to show their respect.
