People started celebrating birthday's when they first wrote the calender.
The parties and gifts came about because people believed that a person
was more vulnerable when their daily routine was changed, such as
someone turning one year older. The gifts were to keep the evil spirits at
bay because they believed keeping the person happy and surrounding
them with friends and family was the way to keep them nasty bastards out :]
Hope that helps!
