The legend of Santa Clause started with stories about a fourth-century bishop. This bishop, Nicholas, was said to be kind, generous, and fond of children. In one story, Nicholas threw a bag of coins down the chimney of a needy family. Long after his death, Nicholas was named a saint. On his saint's day in December, Dutch children would place their shoes by the family hearth, hoping that St. Nicholas would leave treats in them. The Dutch called the saint "Sinter Klass." When Dutch colonists settled in America, they continued this tradition. "Sinter Klass" became known as Santa Claus.
