Finno-Ugric peoples have inhabited the forested expanses of the north of Eastern Europe and Western Siberia - from Finland and Karelia in the West to the Trans-Urals in the East - since ancient times. The myths of the Sami (in the old Russian-speaking tradition - Loparians) - hunters, fishermen and reindeer herders of the north - are close to Finno-Ugric mythology. Having settled so widely, these peoples preserved common legends. They had a common world created by a bird, illuminated by the Polar Star, a world in which the forest acted both as a source of food and as the abode of evil gods.
