Some ancient cultures believed that the sun would never rise so they sacrificed people. Why? Because they weren't educated. They made wild guesses. The same goes for those in Spain who eat 12 grapes for New Year's Eve. One must have experimented and done that. That person may have had good luck by coincidence so the others followed. Keep your eyes open, and you will find that everywhere.
