Home dels nassos (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈɔmə ðəɫz ˈnasus], Western Catalan: [ˈɔme ðeɫz ˈnasos]) is a character in Catalan myths and legends. Home dels nassos is translated as "Man of the noses". The legend says that, on New Year's Eve, this man walks the streets and has as many noses on his face as there are days left in the year. In this way, children of Catalonia are led to believe that there is a man with 365 noses, but of course, being the last day of the year, he conveniently and ironically has only one.
