Sami religion is the ethnic traditional and shamanic religion of the Sami people. It is called Noaidevuohta in Sami language, literally Noaidism, Shamanism, the noaidi being the Sami shaman rank. Though it varied considerably from region to region within Samiland, it commonly emphasized gods and ancestor worship and animal spirits, such as the bear cult. Sami religion is also based on archaeological remains and written sources from missionary work in northern Scandinavia during the Middle Ages and up to the early 18th century, though some of the knowledge exists as family oral tradition.
