SAMILAND - Northern Norway
Loading...
Uploaded by syltar on Jan 24, 2008
In this 10 min long video, you can see some beautiful images from northern Norway, including: Igloo ICE-HOTEL in Alta, the Sami-Parliament in Karasjok, Snowmobile-safari in Kautokeino, Reindeers in Siida and a dinner inside a Lavvo (a traditional Sami tent). The images are followed by music from Goran Bregovic, Nirvana, Moby, Mari Boine and De-Phazz.
The Sami people are an indigenous people of northern Europe inhabiting "Samiland" (Sápmi), which today encompasses parts of northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and the Kola Peninsula of Russia.

the sami dont hunt commercialy or for sport, the sami dont kill the wolvs either, its the work of deforestation destroying the habitat of the wolves and lynx's. greenpeace has a sector for sami independance. my grandmother was also half sami but i am not ignorant, i check my facts.

Although we sometimes make gun of the Sami people, it is kinda cool to have a significant amount of indiginous people in Norway, who have a different culture from the rest of the country. That goes for Sweden, Finland and Russia, where the Sami are found as well. :)

@LunarPoet pretty weak argument you have there ;-)

@TheIdaLouise Fairly recently I heard on the radio that no one really keeps a record of where sami-people live. So the rumor that most of them live in Oslo is not substantiated. If this is true, then it's basically just a myth that someone made up. But I dunno... I don't even remember who said it.

most of "samene" live in Oslo, which is kinda a failure to the "samisk" culture...

African theory has been proven by tracing mitochondrial DNA.

Yes, accepted because of political motives but not proven.

@Akvilonia It is generally accepted as fact. Sorry.

African theory is not proven.

Thanks! The first song is called "7/8 & 11/8" and is taken from the album "Arizona Dream" by Goran Bregovic. I have used Bregovic-music in almost every video I have posted here.

Wow, I'm sorry, but some of that music is just... not right at all for listening to while looking at images of Sámi places and people. Nirvana + Siida = wrong. Just plain wrong. I'm not suggesting Mari Boine either, though. She's overrated. Hmm, yeah, overrated... kinda like... oh, I don't know... NIRVANA?

Thank you for your comment, IshadaKatzteilov. I agree that Nirvana + Siida = wrong, but I still think that Nirvana + Snowmobile driving and jumping = right:)
