Many people mistakenly believe that the one true symbol of the American Christmas is Santa Claus. These people are wrong.

And yeah, the most seductive Christmas song of all time was written for the big guy. But if you really want to understand the spirit of our country around the holidays, consider the Elf

Olives were an important crop to Greece due to their economic, nutritional, and cultural significance. They provided a vital source of oil, which was essential for cooking, lighting, and religious rituals. Additionally, olive cultivation thrived in Greece's rocky terrain, making it a staple agricultural product that supported trade and local economies.
