Researchers believe they have discovered the tomb of the saint responsible for the Santa Claus legend.

It was earlier believed that the remains of Saint Nicholas had already been found and transferred to Italy. Researchers are now saying that was an unidentified priest, and the remains of the real Saint Nicholas are still in Turkey, the Daily Mail reported.
