"The remains of St Nicholas have been held in the Basilica di San Nicola, Bari, Southern Puglia, since 1087, where they are buried in a crypt beneath a marble alter. Over the years relic fragments have been acquired by various churches around the world, calling into question how the bones can all be from the same person. Using a micro-sample of bone fragment, University of Oxford's Professor Tom Higham and Dr. Georges Kazan have for the first time tested one of these bones…" Main page link Amicalement Armand |

I never heard the St Nicholas was a myth, doesn't mean squat about Santa of course. Kinda like UFOs are in fact, real. Flying Saucers from Mars (or any other planet), not so much. |

Now try telling the kids that Santa is dead and his bones are in a box. That will make you the life of the party. Dan |

I know Santa is real, I got presents from him just a few days ago. |

The real Santa Claus was an Orphan rejected by Burgermeister Meisterburger, taken by the wind to the far north, rescued by animals, taken to the Kringles, and then started delivering toys with the help of the Winter Warlock (after giving him a choo choo melted his ice cold heart). Everyone knows that, and he sounds like Mickey Rooney. |

As the aforementioned documentary points out – that is a different story… |

Click bait title – Saint Nicholas is not exactly equivalent to Santa Claus. |
