ccording to the pagan origins, the Saxons worshipped Eostre, the goddess of dawn and spring. At the beginning of the spring season they celebrated a month-long festival, marking the transition from Winter to Spring. During this festival the Saxons offered the buns to the goddess “Eostre”. They marked the buns with a simple cross to represent four phases of the moon.
Some historians dated the origin of ‘Hot Cross Buns’ as an Easter Tradition back to the 12th century. In 1361, an Anglican monk named Father Thomas Rocliffe made small spiced buns marked with the cross. He then distributed these buns to the poor visiting the monastery at St. Albans’s Abbey in Hertfordshire, Southern England on Good Friday, known at the time as the “Day of the Cross”. His noble deed was soon spread throughout country.
