When finding the strange and ill-placed sculptures at
the
top of the most prominent mountain in the area,
people thought it could be the mighty pagan
king
Nimrod standing behind. Therefore the name Nemrut
Mountain.
Nimrod, the great grand son of Noah, started to
celebrate winter solstice, and could thus be the source
of Sunday
and Christmas celebratings, some says even
Easter and Easter eggs. But this
stone relief figure: Santa Claus?
