    Thanksgiving Myths Did the first official thanksgiving take place near Plymouth Rock in 1621? This is the myth that I chose for this paragraph. Well, I think the English colonists we call Pilgrims celebrated days of thanksgiving as parts of their religion, but these were days of prayer, not days of feasting.

  • The Role Of Thanksgiving Rituals In American Culture

    550 Words  | 3 Pages

    As studied by Janet Siskind, the American Thanksgiving celebration is actually a very detailed ritual that contains many symbols. Similar to other rituals, the holiday reinforces certain social structures and “…reaffirms values and assumptions about cultural and social unity, about identity and history, about inclusion and exclusion” (168). The Thanksgiving ritual is centered around a return home, as people traveled from their urban homes back to their rural home to meet with their larger family. As a result, “the household became the site of ritual performance…” (175). The goal of the Thanksgiving ritual was to reaffirm the family and renew traditional ties, especially as more people had started moving into the cities around the time that the holiday became popular in the United States (176).
