This Thanksgiving we can dive into the history, cultural significance, evolution, and symbolism behind one of the holiday's most iconic motifs: the cornucopia. Often seen overflowing with a bountiful harvest, the cornucopia, or "horn of plenty," represents abundance, nourishment, and gratitude—a fitting symbol as we gather to celebrate the season of supposed thankfulness, and more truthfully, overeating to avoid conversations with family members.
