    My husband is Sami from Sweden. My daughter in law is indigenous American Indian and yet as an experiment, just to see if they could, they were able to build teepee, native costumes, cradleboards and native costume, as well as jewelry. They also played music and honor the spirits. Their must have been a land bridge connecting America, Europe,Asia, etc. Strange though the customs stayed with them all

    1 - The Sami occupy all the territory of Scandinavia, Finland and the north of Russia, they came there at the retreat of the glaciers, like the Finns who came later they come from the south of the Urals.
    2 - The Sami are much more numerous and are everywhere, I am a Sami born in Finland and I live in France.
    My family migrated elsewhere to the USA and Canada, UK, France ... but in Finland and Sweden we lived and even live in the south as well as in the north.
    7 - In the Finnish collection Kalevala we find the people of the north with their queen the ice witch and her daughter with whom the Finnish hero is in love.

      There lived Norse people in umeå 1000 years before any Sami even came to ''Sweden'' so the Same must have pushed down the Norse when they entered Scandinavia or intermixed. But yes the church was awful to the sami and before that, the Christians were awful to us Norse, killed us and totally destroyed our culture, way of life and religion

      "they came there at the retreat of the glaciers"
      Only a portion of their ancestry, as is the case with most Europeans. Much of the WHG (and EHG) portions of their genome came to Fennoscandia after the glaciers retreated, though some of these may have descended from later influxes of populations with similar ancestry (i.e. hunter-gatherer ancestry from the European Plain).

      @@nautyseilor6402 Thats so mental. The word 'slave' comes from the name Slav, the Slav peoples. They were farmers in small villages and therefore easy targets for Muslim and Central Asian groups to use as slaves. They did this for centuries because the 'white' ethnic groups were more passive (unless engaged in war of course). But the ways they were used, was horrendous and sad. So the original oppressors were necessarily 'white' peoples. However, these matters should be put to rest, as it were only our ancestors, and not the actions of those here today.

    I am British and had known of Lapp Landers for years.
    But it was only about 10 years ago l discovered the Sami people by watching a BBC television documentary.
    What made the greatest impression on me was the importance given to education. Some teenagers were featured in the film and their command of the English language was excellent. I guess they also had at least one of the Nordic languages as a second or third language.
    Generally, indigenous people everywhere have sufffered throughout history. Now at last their history is being respected and protected.

      Many Sámi people did not learn it from their ancestors because they were deported from Sweden, Norway and Finland after World War II to attend Catholic schools. They were sent to non-Sámi families as adoptive children. An alienation took place. The children grew up as Norwegians etc. and were discriminated against until they were ashamed of their origins and traditions. That's why a lot of knowledge has been lost. It is difficult to live in a country where one's own people are not accepted.

      It means they lived within the borders of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia before these borders were established. But it doesn't mean they were the first or only ones to live there. It's not like they were the victims of colonialism or had their land taken from them, as some claim. Those who claim otherwise are either liars or ignorant.
      And it means they belong to a minority that is socially, culturally and/or linguistically different from the national majority.

      sámi people were persecuted by being chased deep into our home land, kidnapped, forced to leave our culture, hate crimed, relocated, having our homes burnt to the ground, ridiculed, chased from cities. i recommend listening to the song oppskrift for herrefolk. it tells all you need to know

    According to my ancestry story.
    A Sámi tribe migrated towards the UK and my mother’s side sort of stayed here.
    My dads side, the Irish people were very heavily tied to the 11th century king of the O’Neil dynasty.
    They then migrated to france and met a family of blacksmiths in the 1800s
    Then moved to London and lived there for some 100 years or so, Then slowly moved towards the coast again.
    Where eventually my mum and dad met.
    I didn’t know any of this until I did my 23 and Me test.
    Really interesting.
    65% Irish, ~22% french, ~10% sámi, ~3% Neanderthal
    Turns out I’m basically not English at all.
    I’m part tribal, part blacksmith, part royal blood, I’m part whisky.
    Fascinating stuff.

      If they can have children then they can have ancestors you dingus.
      People have lived in those regions for thousands of years.
      I have ancestry there dating back to when they migrated towards the UK.
      It’s no different than someone being related to vikings, or other Norse or baltic people.
      It’s not direct ancestry as it’s only about 10% supposedly on my mums side when I had my DNA analysed.
      It shows a genetic hotspot and describes a best fit timeline etc
      You’re welcome to make a thing of it, but I don’t really care.
      The DNA test was for me not for you and I am proud to be a small part Sami and know more about my ancestors.
      That my ancestors on my mums side may have been very hard working reindeer herders and wonderful culturally rich people.
      Also… what does “have that designation” even mean?

      @@Atuchy so they didn’t immigrate to the UK straight away
      It was a gradual migration as far as I know
      The infos a bit limited on their movements, there’s only so much they can know with DNA
      But they must of made the hop across the channel some point
      I don’t know when that was though
      The only things I know for sure because they’re a bit more modern
      Is that I’m largely Irish because of king O’Neill and also I have as far as I know also a fair bit of French from an 1800s blacksmith family, Forgeard’s
      Which as I understand is an evolution of Forge

      Yeah tend to erase the sea sámi. However, reindeer herding is an older tradition for sámi than farming. Before that it was hunting and gathering, where hunting reindeer was extremely important. We were mostly nomadic until people started settling down a few centuries ago. In the coastal areas they settled earlier
