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
I lived in Sweden years ago and hiked up in Norrland from Jokmok into the Sami region. Several reindeer herders invited me to come inside the yard and to visit their summer teepee--like hut. It was an unforgettable experience and it is fresh in my mind 50 years later! Such friendly, warm people!
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).
I can't bear these documentaries where they talk about reindeer yet show pics of elk. I think there is only one person in the world who illustrates these things, he's sequestered way somewhere, doesn't care about truth and hates his job. But I liked it apart from that.

Hi there the battle between ones very own embedded ancestry and the society they’re in maybe a dreadful conflict. I’ve been in a lot of trouble throughout because I don’t value what ppl value here. Once I found out my relatives are indigenous Laplanders I began to relax and could be myself for the very first time. Lots of love also !
@@davidturner4610 I adopted a baby girl decades ago. She has the 'Norwegian Eyes', the fold beneath the eye. Wonder what her lineage is. Maybe Sami. She is so funny. She was a little, about 1-1/2 years old when I let her play in a mountain stream. It was COLD! She turned blue but cried when I took her out to warm her up. Been like that all her life. Hates the heat.
Sámi peoples are awesome. It is so sad to hear that Sweden dig Sámi people's ancestors' graves and took their bones for so called scientific reasons. Sámis deserve a big country of their own.
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.

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.

Everyone is the same in some aspects. Given that this is how people lived long before the continents split thats why all our houses look almost alike.. people had the skills to make homes way before pangea fell apart.
@@lordfarquar9215 pangaea split up about 250 million years ago. So there was no chance of building types being tied to that time. For that matter modern humans started moving out of Africa 70,000-100,000 years ago.. even the 1st hominid dates back to 200,000 to 300,000 years ago.
Many indigenous cultures came up with the general similar concept of using sticks and animal hide to make a home. Much in the same way that numerous cultures throughout the world long ago came up with boats or came up with farming independently of each other. They didn’t have to interact with each other to have come to a similar idea.
My DNA reveals that I'm part Sami - a small blotch of neon blue up in the ragged coastal Norwegian Penninsula between Sweden and Finland. Also partly in southern and central Norway. I live in Southern California.
@Marcus It means that somewhere down the line, I as an American for decades had an ancestor who was possibly Sami. My AncestryDNA map of Norway was shaded blue from south to north in the area of Samis. Assumption.
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.
Evidence suggests that the Indo European population first arrived in these regions sometime between 10,000 BC and 5000 BC. They first settled on the flat expanses of Denmark and in the south of Sweden. Other parts of Europe were already populated at this time. The first-known Scandinavian was the Koelbjerg Man, dated to around 8,000 BC. His body was recovered from a bog in Koelbjerg, Denmark, just outside of Odense.
Sami goes from Hokkaido Ainu, then to Inuit and Eskimo, to Northern Europe and arctic circle. My mother said, if you look at me, you can travel the whole world in my eyes! 😮 😂
@@jacksolhaug7070 okay, your are partly right. But... The reindeer is a species of deer with circumpolar distribution, native to Arctic, subarctic, tundra, boreal, and mountainous regions of Northern Europe, Siberia and North America. I guess it could be a red deer at sec 58-59 or something like that.
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
My Great Great Grandmother is Sami from Northern Finland my Grandmother talked about us being related to Vikings. I'm not real sure of that but I'm the biggest of my family large bone broad shoulders. I live in Central America with Cherokee & Choctaw blood I thought about a DNA test but haven't done it. I'm a welder And blacksmith & foundryman.
Sami people are small, very short but stocky. Vikings and Sami did not mix in general. They lived in completely different areas and with different way they f life, culture and languages
After a DNA test my mother's ancestry has a tie to the Sami people. Not sure who put the video together but they kept showing pictures of the Rocky mountain elk/wapati?
Sami were Ancient Meetei army of Manipur(north east india)we still preserved Sami Lanmi clothes.In Ancient times Manipur was name as Lai Ram Land/Lai Lam Land/Lai Pham Lel/Lai Pham/Tin Pham/Lai Lam/Tin Lam/Tai Pong Paan/kangleipak etc.
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

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
A wigwam does not resemble a tipi (teepee).
Can the Sami buy there clothes from shops or are they ALL self-made?
Depends on which, most of the clothing like gákti/gaapta, and the stuff to wear with them are self made, but some shoes can be bought yes.
My Great Great Grandmother is Sami from Northern Finland my Grandmother talked about us being related to Vikings.
I'm not real sure of that but I'm the biggest of my family large bone broad shoulders. I live in Central America with Cherokee & Choctaw blood I thought about a DNA test but haven't done it. I'm a welder And blacksmith &
foundryman.
Not correct. I’m 25% Sami and 75% Swedish. Sami is an indigenous people to the Nordics whereby vikings are not.
@freddiekrueger8715it's the internet where people still can quite freely express themselves. Let them.
Sami people are small, very short but stocky. Vikings and Sami did not mix in general. They lived in completely different areas and with different way they f life, culture and languages
I'm old fashioned in that way🌸
Us Apaches also have teepees.
@freddiekrueger8715 right?! It makes us mobile.
What's interesting is that the clothes are very similar to those many minority ethnic Asian cultures in Asia.
That is because they where originally Asians. They got mixed later on

5 is not true
Generally, Sami people do not like when they are reduced to reindeers. They were peasants. Herding reindeers came much later into there lives.
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
Why do they keep showing Elk??? Lame.
