Much of this knowledge got lost. Still today much ofit is taboo, at some places yoiks for instance are still forbidden and not spoken of. At the moment there is a still fragile Sámi cultural revival. More and more young Sámi are starting to sing the old yoiks and practice the tradition al spiritual knowledge. They adapt it in a form suited to the present times as every living tradition has always done. Sámi nowadays are almost entirely integrated into contemporary Scandinavian society: they live in modem houses, have regular professional training and use advanced computer technology for reindeer herding.

The traditional Sámi have never exhausted nature's resources. They did not made any visible permanent changes to the naturallandscape like putting up permanent buildings or doing agriculture. They never started wars with neighbouring peoples. They posses amazing traditional knowledge and survival skills.

Aiso it is important to be aware that Sámi have never been culturally isolated from the rest of the world. They have been permanent I y in contact with other peoples and have contributed to shape Europe's cultural history. As early as there are writings about Scandinavia we find mentions of Sámi with their fur trade, the ski they invented, shamanic magic and knowledge ofherbs and healthy living.

The modern societies have taken step by step away the basis for Sámi traditionallifestyle and culture. The reindeer pastures became divided in country national boundaries. The land belonged to the state and not to the Sámi any more, they had to accept to get only small parcels for houses. There were more and more roads, there was deforestation and mining. Many new inhabitants came, there was less and less free space. Nowadays
Sámi languages are spoken by only 35000 persons and they are on the red list of endangered languages.

AlI over the world people realise that indigenous peoples have invaluable traditional knowledge and experience in nature spirituality and social values that allowed in the past and partly still today very stable and happy societies.
