“…The numerous monographs and general comparative surveys by the most notable Finnish scholar of comparative religion, Uno Harva (e. g. Holmberg (Harva) 1914; 1922; 1926; 1927; Нагуа 1938; 1948; 1952), have in particular supported the preservation of the Finno-Ugric alternative even when certain other researchers have, in their search for comparative material, preferred to head for the ancient cultural centres of Europe, the Byzantine Empire and the Middle East. There are still arguments in favour of the phenomenological comparison of the religions of the Finno-Ugric peoples, because this alone has provided a medium for understanding some of the structural features of religious traditions (e. g. Paulson et al 1962;Honko 1971).…”

The religions of Scandinavians and Saamis have, for decades of scholarship, functioned as sources of analogies to explain elements in one another. For the study of Saami religion answers to questions about origins were sought in Scandinavian religion, while Saami religion has been seen by students of Scandinavian religion, as a preserver and a faithful witness of Scandinavian concepts and rites that had vanished in the times reflected in the literary sources. This view has now changed. In recent decades the tendency has been to use the loan- explanations more and more sparsely. Elements in Saami religion that were seen earlier as Scandinavian loans are now explained in a Finno-Ugric context, whereas the few elements in Scandinavian religion that were thought of as loans from the Saamis are more often looked upon as inherited from a common origin, a North Eurasian cultural stratum. The search for analogies has, in any case, preoccupied the historian of religions in this field, too. The purpose here is to provide a short and selective résumé of some aspects of a theme in the history of scholarship, a theme where "resemblances" have been found, compared, used as analogies, and — called into question: the comparative study of the religions of the Scandinavians and Saamis.
