As its xmas.....
I dont know where to put this, Mods, feel free to move as you will.
found that pic of Carl Linnaeus in Shaman garb.
(now why hasnt he been claimed by over enthusiastic new agers?? But he was a magician in his own way)
But it got me to thinking; we need a Saami thread, they are associated with many strange occult practices, the Norse have phrases like `lappshot` (where we would say `elfshot` and indeed the Saami are very like the people of legend)
They are an age old minority who are successful even in the present day (though they have certainly changed over the centuries)
A minority yes, but one who married into the Royal family.
They are a peaceful folk but they have been identified as the people Ghenghis Khan said he would never want to fight again.
They are clever craftsmen and to this day their wares are in big demand in Scandanavia.
anyone got anything to add?
