Swift, 28, posted a video of the package, which
also included a letter from Perry, on her Instagram stories
account with the caption "Thank You Katy" and a double heart
emoji.
The fight, which started as a dispute over back up dancers, has
dominated the personal and professional lives of the two singers
for more than four years and played out in their songs.
Swift's 2014 single "Bad Blood" was believed to be directed at
Perry. Perry, 33, described her 2017 single, "Swish Swish," as
"a great anthem for people to use whenever somebody's trying to
hold you down or bully you."
An attempt by Perry a year ago to bury the hatchet, when she
apologized for past actions and called Swift a "fantastic
singer," was met with silence from Swift.
On Tuesday however, the singer said in her Instagram story, "I
just got to my dressing room and found this actual olive branch.
This means so much to me."
An olive branch is a traditional symbol of peace.
The olive branch, along with a letter beginning "Hey Old Friend,
I’ve been doing some reflecting on past miscommunications and
hurt feelings between us," arrived on the first day of Swift's
worldwide "Reputation" tour, in Glendale, Arizona.
It also followed Perry's headline grabbing appearance on Monday
at the Met Gala in New York, where she dressed as an angel.
