European Santa figures may wear different colors.

European Santa figures may wear different colors. | Why would elves obey a human? The character now known as Santa Claus mythically was king of the northern elves. He was skinny, a bit severe & wore green or brown. Over time people wanted a more human, jolly figure. His appearance was ultimately fixed into what we recognize now by an artist named Thomas Nast in a black & white drawing. Finally, the Coca-Cola company bombarded people with ad images of Santa wearing their product's colors: red with white trim. | image tagged in santa,pagan,mythology,history,advertising | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Hope they didn't get indigestion.

Hope they didn't get indigestion. | Did your family ever leave milk & cookies for Santa? If so, you have participated in an ancient ritual.

European Santas sometimes dress like bishops.

European Santas sometimes dress like bishops. | Nicolas of Myra was a Turkish bishop. He is the patron saint of sailors, travelers, bakers, merchants, thieves & children. December 6 is the day the church devotes to him; he was beheaded that day due to his violent behavior. When the church couldn't stop Europeans from exchanging presents in winter, it was decided to connect this saint to the elf king in charge of the gifts. As the name "Saint Nicolas" was passed through various languages, it eventually changed into "Santa Claus." | image tagged in saint nicholas punching heretic,christmas,history,christianity | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
