Abstract
This monograph is an historical survey of the settlement patterns, subsistence activities, and material and intellectual culture of the mountain, forest, coast, Skolt, and Kola Saami. It includes a brief history of the treatment of the Saami, as a minority group, in Sweden, Norway, and Finland. Emphasis is placed on the historical changes in Saami culture that resulted from contact with Russian, Finnish, and Swedish peasant culture and Norwegian fishing and peasant culture.
