Saint Nicholas was a Bishop in 4 B.C. The reason why we started getting gifts for christmas is because of Saint Nicholas. On Christmas, he would travel on a donkey around Russia, He would travel around the Poverty Houses and put Gold coins on their window sills. After a couple years, The people started giving Saint Nicholas "thank you" items, the people living in poverty would give Saint Nicholas bread, For they had nothing else to give him.
So that is Saint Nicholas..
