Demografiska förhållanden och erfarenheter av smittkoppor bland Gällivaresamerna under 1700-talet / Peter Sköld.
Title: | Demografiska förhållanden och erfarenheter av smittkoppor bland Gällivaresamerna under 1700-talet / Peter Sköld. |
Translated title: | Demographic conditions and experiences of smallpox among Gällivare Saami during 18th Cent. |
Author(s): | Sköld, Peter. |
Date: | 1995. |
Publisher: | Umeå, Sweden: Historika institutionen Umeå universitet |
Language: | Swedish. |
In: | Föredrag vid Nordiska Samehistoria. (1995.), |
Abstract: | Talk gives figures for period, with vaccination available towards end. Usually Saami were less affected than rest of Swedish population, perhaps because relatively isolated, perhaps because more scattered. Disease was much dreaded, as Linnaeus noted, its name taboo, and common recourse was to fly to hills. Mortality varied considerably between settlements. Study of marriage showed high probability of marriage between recovered subjects - smallpox could leave many handicaps or impairment. |
