Heritage: something handed down from ones ancestors
or the past, as a characteristic, a culture, tradition, etc.
 Knowing
the heritage of your family can give you a real sense of belonging.
To the world, to your family and to the past. Tracing your family
tree, and researching where
your family comes from can also give you some insight into who
you are. Why you celebrate certain holiday's in certain ways
and at certain times as an example. For instance, ever wonder
why you might begin celebrations of Christmas after dinner on
Christmas Eve, and others wait till Christmas Day? The reason
could be an old connection to family religoius practices from
very long ago.
