Easter eggs have been a symbol of new life and rebirth since ancient times. The tradition of decorating eggs for Easter dates back to early Christians in Mesopotamia, who dyed eggs red to symbolize the blood of Christ. Over time, the practice spread to other cultures and evolved into the colorful and decorative eggs we see today. The egg's association with Easter represents the resurrection of Jesus and the promise of new life.

Where did eggs come from originally?

If you refer to Easter Eggs and the origin of the celebration, there is a thorough explanation on this page: http://www.allaboutjesuschrist.org/origin-of-the-easter-egg-faq.htm "Exchanging Easter eggs with one another is a custom that goes back thousands of years. Long before its association with Easter, the egg was a symbol of rebirth. Many ancient cultures used the egg to symbolize both rebirth and the universe. Ancient peoples such as the Persians, the Egyptians, the Chinese, the Gauls, and the Romans all used the egg in their springtime celebrations." However, if you are referring to eggs in particular; there is plenty of scientific evidence that dinosaurs were bearers of their young by means of an egg. This evidence dates millions and millions of years ago. Some believe up to 3 million years.
