Grave of 'Father Christmas' discovered under church in Turkey

ARCHAEOLOGISTS believe they may have uncovered the tomb of Saint Nicholas underneath an ancient church in Turkey.

Researchers claim the remains of the holy figure – who inspired Santa Claus - were recently discovered under a 6th century building more than 1,600 years after his death.

St Nicholas passed away on December 6, 343 AD, and was allegedly buried at the UNESCO recognised church located in the small coastal town of Demre.

But his alleged tomb, which has been described as the original Santa's grotto, was not found until 2017 when researchers conducted electronic surveys.

Turkish archaeologists reportedly detected a crypt 5ft beneath the marble slabs which make the church's floor.

One long standing theory is that the tomb shifted underground during an earthquake and remained undiscovered until modern techniques allowed experts to scan below the surface.
