THE

Schreiner
has collected some 300 Lapp skeletons from graves along the
Norwegian coast, all of which were of Lappish construction or
contained typically Lappish grave furniture; there is no reason to
confuse them either with contemporary Viking graves or with the
earlier remains of the Stone Age people of this region, for the Lapp
graves are manifestly late and intrusive. Furthermore they are
geographically restricted, for the Lapps did not, before the
sixteenth century, range below 63° N. Latitude, and the most
southerly Lappish burials yet found are at Steinkjaer on the inner
Trondhjem fjord. The Lapp inroad of the eighteenth century into
South Trondelag and Hedmark came not from the north, but from the
Swedish provinces of Jamtland and Hardjedalen, to the east. The
Lapps did not, therefore, extend south into central Norway until
very recent times, and had no opportunity to mix with Norwegians in
any numbers south of Tydsfjord, the northernmost fjord-valley of
Nordland. They cannot, therefore, have been responsible for the
brachycephaly in southern Norway. Although there is no skeletal
material from the Stone Age sites of northern Norway, there is no
reason to suppose that these people were the ancestors of the Lapps,
since Lapp sites and Stone Age sites are distinct, and nothing
transitional has been found.
On
the historical side, the evidence is clear. In regard to somatology
we may be equally positive, since there is no lack of anthropometric
material. Series by Bryn,6 Alette Schreiner,7
Gjessing,8 Geyer,9 Kajava,10 and
Zolotarev 11 represent Lapps from Norway, Sweden,
Finland, and Russia; these studies are all modern and cover the
living material fully, while K. E. Schreiner’s skeletal series
provides a check upon the dead. All of these series show that the
Lapps are very mixed, and that they contain not only Nordic blood,
derived from Norwegian contact, intense during the last four
centuries, but also a blond brachycephalic element which presumably
comes from their even commoner mixture with the Kvaens, the
northernmost of Finns. Several attempts have been made to isolate
“pure” Lapps, but this isolation must be relative since they
were probably mixed before they arrived in the present Lapp- land.
It
is generally assumed that the Lapps were originally brunet, and that
what blondism they possess has been acquired through this mixture.
There is, of course, no factual basis for this assumption, and if it
be true, the Lapps must have more non-Lapp than Lapp blood. Hair

RACES OF EUROPE
observed
by means of the Fischer scale in six modern studies,12
while in two others 13 no scale was employed, but the
material is capable of comparative use. In these series the
adult male Lapps vary, in black to dark brown hair colors, from
forty to eighty per cent; the beard color, when observed, is
lighter. There is some argument as to whether the pure brunet Lapp
hair is really black or dark brown, which would indicate that it
often falls into a borderline category. When blond, it is usually
ashen, and almost never golden or red. The selected “pure”
groups, Bryn’s Reindeer Lapps, and some of Geyer’s mountain and
forest Lapps from Sweden, have seventy per cent or over of this dark
hair, while the fairest Lapps, with a majority of brown and blond
shades, are found in Finland and in the Kola Peninsula.
Pure
dark eyes are found among one-third of Reindeer Lapps, and among as
few as eight per cent in the total of Lapps from Norway.14
Pure light and light-mixed eyes are commonest among the Lapps of
Finland, where they total between thirty and forty per cent, and
least common among the Reindeer Lapps of interior Norway and Sweden.
Even among the purest selected sub-groups, such as that of Geyer,
who isolated from a larger Swedish Lapp sample a few individuals of
most pronounced Lappish type, at least a third are light or
light-mixed in iris color.
The
skin color of Lapps with light hair and eyes is as light as that of
Norwegians and Finns, but in the majority, with mixed or dark hair
and eye pigmentation, the skin tends to a grayish yellow to
yellowish brown, with some moderately dark individuals, equivalent
in pigment intensity to Spaniards or Italians.15 On the
whole the skin is lighter on the face and darker on the body, and is
usually darkest on the abdomen and genitalia.16 Among the
old this skin becomes deeply wrinkled, since it is then deficient in
sub-cutaneous fat. The eyes are set in deeply excavated sockets in
senility, owing to the same fat deficiency.
The
Lapp hair is thick on the head, usually straight or but slightly
wavy; it is of moderate texture, and seldom coarse or wiry in a
truly mongoloid manner. Graying begins late, and baldness is rare.
