the
sparseness of body hair, the small genitals, the bulbous forehead
with a smooth supraorbital region, the weak chin, and the low,
child-like nose.22 Some environmental mechanism working
upon the mineral economy of this peripheral human group has probably
produced this size reduction and infantilism.23
Schreiner’s
opinion, based upon a detailed study of Lapp craniology as well as
upon the living material, is simple and adequate. Translated into
the terms of the present study, it signifies that the original
ancestral Lapps represented a stage in the evolution of both the
Upper Palaeolithic Europeans and the mongoloids, and that while the
mongoloids have specialized in their own characteristic way, and
while the Ice-Age European strain was modified by mixture with
and virtual absorption by the encroaching post-Pleistocene food
producers, the ancestral Lapps were, in their turn, modified largely
by a general size reduction and an increasing infantilism. The
jaw reduction of the Lapps is their most easily identified
specialization.
In
view of the known history of Upper Palaeolithic whites and of
mongoloids, this divergence of the Lapps from the others must
have taken place as early as the Laufen glacial retreat. Their area
of specialization was presumably western Siberia, where they found
room in which to specialize with little interference. From here they
must later have spread over Finland and northwestern Russia, whence
they entered northern Scandinavia sometime during the first
millennium of the Christian era, by a gradual trickling process. In
their northern wanderings they may have met the Samoyed, and from
them acquired their domestic reindeer and the habit of reindeer
milking. Since, according to both Laufer and Hatt,24 this
last trait did not develop in its central Asiatic home much before
the middle of the first millennium B.C., the Lapps could not have
acquired this practice much before their arrival in Scandinavia. The
acquisition of this superior economy must have given them an impetus
for northward expansion, as it did, farther east, with the*
Tungus.
We
must not look for Lappish ancestors, therefore, in the large-headed
Borreby people of Mesolithic and Neolithic Denmark, nor in the
occupants of the Stone Age sites of northernmost Norway; if we
find Lapp-like
This
general estimate of the Lapp racial position is for the most part a
paraphrase of K. E. Schreiner’s conclusions in his Zur
Osteologie
der Lappen, by
far the most erudite work yet to appear on the Lapp question.

physical
traits, as do Czekanowski, Mydlarski, and others, among eastern
European brachycephals, and even among western European Alpines, we
must remember that some of the Lappish peculiarities, including
perhaps their specialized nasal tip form, may have been common
possessions of the Upper Palaeolithic European peoples as well.
As we shall see later, there may have been transitional forms
between Lapps and Europeans, and this general class of humanity
may be responsible for the wide- eyed brachycephals who, as we saw
in our historical chapters, appeared now and then in southern Russia
and Poland from the beginning of the Neolithic onward.
In
the eastern extension of their territory the Lapps share the Kola
Peninsula with their neighbors and fellow reindeer-herders, the
Samoyeds. The Lapps represent, however, a much older population, for
the Samoyeds have only lived there for a few centuries. There are,
according to Russian authorities, only 1,6,500 Samoyeds in the
world; of these 4000 live on the Kola Peninsula, another 5000 range
between the White Sea and the mouth of the Yenisei River, and the
rest hunt between the Obi and Yenisei rivers, and in the Yenisei
drainage. Thus the bulk of the Samoyeds still inhabit their
Siberian home. All of those mentioned speak a language which
constitutes one of the two primary divisions of Uralic speech. It
seems to be definitely related to Finno-Ugrian, although its
supposed kinship to Tungus, Mongol, and Turkish has been questioned.
Other
Samoyeds, who have been Turkicized in language, and to a large
extent in manner of living, dwell in southern Siberia, in the
provinces of Yeniseisk, Tomsk, and Irkutsk, and also in Mongolia.
These go under the names of Soyots, Karagas, and Uriankhai; they are
more numerous than the Samoyeds proper. Whatever their earlier
history, the Samoyeds, without reasonable doubt, may be considered
to have developed as an ethnic and linguistic group in the region
north of the Altai Mountains, the general center of Altaic-speaking
Mongoloids.26 Their spread northward into Siberia
and thence to the Arctic rim of Europe must have been a relatively
recent phenomenon.
In
central Asia the Turkicized Samoyeds are definitely and fully
mongoloid, and belong to the Buryat-Mongol variety, which we have
encountered historically among the Avars. Those who live in Europe
have brought the same physical type with them with but little
modification.
The samoyeds26

Professor
G. J. Ramstedt of Helsingfors University has expressed the opinion
that the original bearers of Samoyedic speech must at one time have
moved to the Altai region from a point nearer the Finno-Ugrian
homeland.—Private Communication.
