Lapps and Labyrinths

Saami Prehistory, Colonization, and Cultural Resilience




Professor Noel D. Broadbent is one of Sweden's foremost experts on north Swedish archaeology and literally wrote the book on the prehistory of the Skellefteå region on the North Bothnian coast. This knowledge is now brought to bear on the issue of Saami origins. The focus is on the successful adaptive strategies of Saami societies over thousands of years - a testimony to Saami resiliency, of relevance to the survival of indigenous societies worldwide today.

Praise for Lapps and Labyrinths

"Broadbent's Lapps and Labyrinths has a broad application and demostrates the value of anthropological studies for balancing the dominance of history in native studies. This work is in the best tradition of Scandinavian archaeology and breaks new ground for science and society." -- William Fitzhugh, Curator, Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History
