Karavaki - Christmas Boats
Greece has always been a seafaring nation, especially when you look at the islands.  The sailors worked hard and were at sea for long periods of time, while the women waited on the Greek islands for the return of their fathers, brothers, husbands and sons. The return of loved ones was a cause for celebration, and the women decorated small wooden boats that were placed in front of the door with a small lantern next to it. This was a special way of saying "welcome home" and that since medieval times.

A Karavaki (small boat) next to Christmas trees (x)
The decorating of boats spread throughout much of the country and became a custom during the holidays during the 17th and 18th centuries. The wooden boats were decorated with lights and ornaments and were placed near a door or fireplace with the bow of the Christmas boat facing inwards. This symbolised the successful journey to the mainland. Sometimes coins or gold objects were placed in the boat, symbolising the wealth of a household. Children also went door to door with these wooden boats, happily singing Greek Christmas carols. While they sang, neighbours would put small treats like sweets or candies in the boats.

I believe this is suit actor Akira Ohashi suing up as Gamera for Gamera 2: Advent of Legion (1996).
