The Enigma of Santa Claus – Saint Basil
It was late December, 1963. Dimitri Tselos and his young nephew were approaching Syntagma Square, when the boy suddenly called out, ‘Themis the big tree and Saint Basil!’ The tree was a tall and magnificent Scandinavian fir, fully decorated with ornaments and lights. Near it stood a man, dressed in a red fur-trimmed suit and cap, resembling a Salvation Army Santa Claus.
