The term emphasizes the process of bringing something new into existence, whether it be a child or a new reality. Cultural and Historical Background:In the ancient Greco-Roman world, childbirth was a significant event, often surrounded by various cultural and religious practices. The act of giving birth was seen as both a natural and divine process, with deities like Eileithyia in Greek mythology overseeing childbirth.
