The vegetable was a turnip. It was a turnip because the Celts believed that the head contained wisdom and the energy of the body. They would "headhunt" them and stick them to the doors to frighten off harmful spirits.
The first Jack of the Lanterns were probably carved into a turnip or potato. The turnip eventually became the Jack o' Lantern vegetable, that is, until those people (from Ireland) started moving to America. They could not find many turnips, so they started carving pumpkins, instead.
Jack-o-lanterns originated in Mexico for the night of the living dead celebration (Halloween) to keep away evil spirits.
