Santa Claus 圣诞老人
圣诞老人源于欧洲的民间传说。他身材丰满，拥有9只名字各 不相同的驯鹿，最大的烦恼是有烟囱爬的房子越来越少了。圣 诞老人以一位神秘人物带给小孩子们礼物的概念衍生自圣尼古 拉。尼古拉是一位生活在4世纪小亚细亚的好心主教，荷兰人 在圣尼古拉斯节（12月6日）便会模仿他送礼物。 圣诞老人是不同传说和神秘人型的结合体。传说圣诞老人是在 数千年前的斯堪的纳维亚半岛即出现。北欧神话中司智慧、艺 术、诗词、战争的奥丁神，寒冬时节，骑上他那八脚马坐骑驰 骋于天涯海角，惩恶扬善，分发礼物。与此同时，其子雷神穿 红衣以闪电为武器与冰雪诸神昏天黑地恶战一场，最终战胜寒 冷。据异教传说，圣诞老人为奥丁神后裔。[3] 在德国中部和 北部地区，尼古拉斯被称为“圣诞老人”，在英国被称为“圣 诞父亲”，被美国的荷兰移民称为后来的“SantaClaus” 在第40届世界圣诞老人大会上，丹麦属地格陵兰被确认为圣诞 老人真正的故乡。
