Advancing the scientific understanding of Christmas traditions and their impact on society
Founded in 336 AD by a group of forward-thinking holiday enthusiasts, the Yuletide Institute for Cultural Studies has been at the forefront of Christmas-related research for almost 2 thousand years. What began as a small gathering of curious minds has grown into a world-renowned institution dedicated to unraveling the mysteries and impact of yuletide traditions.
Our journey has been marked by groundbreaking discoveries, from the first scientific analysis of reindeer flight patterns in 1132 AD to our recent breakthroughs in quantum gift-wrapping technology.
