<P align="justify">But even the Saami needed a professional mediator between the human community and the forces of the supernatural world. This was the shaman, the <i>noaidi</i>. The main task of the shaman was to cure illness, restoring the original, good order of things in this respect. Illness was regarded as being caused by the other half of the two-part human soul being taken into possession by the dead and into the nether world. The most common reason for this was the interference of the spirits of the dead in the lives of the living. In this case the shaman had to achieve a state of trance, during which he would undertake a soul journey to <i>Jábmiidáibmu</i>, the realm of the dead. The objective was to retrieve the soul of the patient to the world of the living. In a similar manner, the shaman could take the form of the freely moving component of his soul to journey in this world, if the souls of game animals had been lost, for example by being captured by the <i>noaidi</i> of a neighbouring <i>siida</i>, or Lapp village. The shaman's main item of equipment was his drum, which was used not only for achieving the trance but also for predicting events.</p>

<P align="justify">The prominent communal elements of ancient Saami beliefs, such as the shaman system, joint <i>seita</i> worship by the whole <i>siida</i> and the bear cult, were uprooted by the 18th century at the latest, but the individual practice of nature religion, such as private <i>seita</i> worship continued until the last century.</i>
