Amanor - Observed on: January 1
New Year is celebrated a whole week starting with December 31, by baking
New Year cookies and tables laden with food and different kinds of
sweets. During this week, people exchange gifts and congratulatory
wishes, and their homes are open to welcome everyone. Visiting begins on
January 1 and last through Christmas on January 6.
Armenian children believe that Dzmer Papik (Santa Claus) brings gifts on
New Year’s Eve. Several days or weeks before the holiday, children write
letters to Dzmer Papik telling him what toys they wish.

In Greece, New Year's day is also the Festival of
St. Basil, one of the founders of the Greek Orthodox
Church. One of the traditional foods served is
Vassilopitta, or St Basil's cake. A silver or gold
coin is baked inside the cake. Whoever finds the
coin in their piece of cake will be especially lucky
during the coming year. People also exchange gifts
