Description
The origins of the Green Man, or foliate head, have been subject to much speculation and debate. One popular theory suggests that the motif has pagan roots, representing a nature deity associated with fertility and the cycle of life. This interpretation suggests that the Green Man symbolizes the rejuvenation of vegetation during spring.
The Green Man is often found in Christian churches, leading some to argue that it was incorporated into Christian iconography to bridge the gap between pagan beliefs and Christianity. Ultimately, the pagan origins of the Green Man remain a fascinating yet elusive aspect of its history.
