Just to be quite troublesome the Sa'ami share what is called the "X-factor DNA sequence" with the Fulbe, Cherokee, Iroquois, Berber, Ojibway and Yakuts/Sakha.

They share a lot of other genetic material with these same groups as well.

The Sa'ami are the original Northern European people and they traveled widely at towards the end of the Great Glaciation.

We don't know if the Sa'ami were yet blue-eyed blonds at the time they began their journies which may have been as early as 15,000 years ago ~ LONG BEFORE the creation of any of the Indo-European languages.

I have hear this about the Sa'ami (just to clarify, these are the Lapps in northern Finland, correct?) and their linguistic connection with East Asia and several tribes of Native Americans. Fascinating stuff, especially when one considers not only the post ice age migrations but what humanity may have looked like and what history was made in the preceding inter-glacial period when the climate was similar to what we've enjoyed for the past 10,000 or so years.
