Game on...on the radio...Dodgers at Rockies...
A Before and After
We don't get to do
An after life interview-
That, posterity!
Can't say I recall
Before birth introduction-
Heralds sing, they say.
Oh, I'll sing for you
When you arrive after months-
And gone, sing for me.
Oh, and I compare
Side by side a seaside bench
Me and you and me.
It's just look alike
Anytime and anywhere
Everyone here, there.

In ancient Greece, newborn children—including future leaders—did not have a theatrical play for their birth, but families celebrated a core ritual called the Amphidromia on the fifth or seventh day after birth to formally welcome the child into the family. [1, 2]
Birth and Naming Ceremonies
The Amphidromia: The father ran around the family hearth carrying the baby. This act purified the newborn and accepted them into the household. [1]
The Decad: On the tenth day, a formal naming day and feast took place. Family and friends brought gifts like amulets, and animal sacrifices were offered to goddesses like Eileithyia. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Plays and Performance Connections
Mystery Plays: While royal births did not feature a play, ancient Mediterranean traditions (such as in Egypt or Near Eastern traditions) featured ritual "succession plays" or coronation dramas that symbolized a king's divine rebirth or ascension to the throne. [1, 2, 3]
Theatrical Evolution: Greek drama and tragedy evolved out of civic and religious Dionysian festivals later on, rather than private royal birth rituals. [1, 2]
