Scientists have created the real face of Saint Nicholas of Myra, the person behind Santa Claus, which has been shown for the first time in 1700 years.
Saint Nicholas, who was an early Christian, now the world can see his real face. Nicholas' image of giving gifts made him Santa Claus. Gradually it was later associated with Christmas, in which the tradition of giving gifts grew in such a way that children still like the character of Santa Claus.

According to the Mirror report, experts used the heads of Saint Nicholas of Myra to forensically reconstruct their faces. Despite his immense popularity around the world, there is no specific description of Saint Nicholas. Now people will be able to see his living face for the first time.
