A Yule log is a Christmas tradition in which a log of wood is progressively burned in a fireplace over several nights.
The tradition was once popular in parts of Europe and made its way to North America, but it's now part of the more general tradition of having a log fire at Christmas.
Watts noted that several Yule traditions, perhaps the Yule log among them, have become known as Christmas traditions.In the oldest form of the Yule log tradition, the end of a wooden log was thrust into a fire, where it burned for one night while the rest of the unburned log lay outside the flames. Some Yule logs were very large, and illustrations from Tudor times in England show several men hauling the logs into the fireplace of a stately house.
According to Watts, the Yule log tradition traveled to North America with European settlers, and for a time the burning of a Yule log was one of the traditions of an American Christmas. In France, where the Yule log tradition was once widespread and known as bûche de Noël , the log has been replaced with the tradition of a cake that's iced to look like a log of wood, also known as a bûche de Noël.
