"Santa Claus is a variation of a Dutch folk tale based on the historical figure Saint Nicholas, a bishop from Myra in Asia Minor, who used his whole inheritance to assist the needy, the sick, and the suffering.
His charity became legend when a man found himself incapable of supporting his three daughters, who would not be able to find husbands as they lacked dowries. St Nicholas provided them with gold, enabling them to marry."
