<div class="tooltip-content-ethnographica">Here Castrén is describing short sacrificial prayers, typical of the Nenets rituals, which can take place either in the tundra or in the camp. As seen, the sacrifices can be related, for example, to luck in livelihood and health. In the prayer, the spirit in question is briefly addressed. For similar prayers, see Lehtisalo 1947: 547–550.</div>

<div class="tooltip-content-ethnographica">As implied, a reindeer is not always sacrificed. A sacrifice without a sacrificial animal is called TN <i>хаңор</i>, whereas TN <i>ханʹ</i> denotes a ritual with an animal sacrifice. A sacrificial reindeer is traditionally killed by strangling it. Typically, the idols are fed with blood or fat, which are spread on the idol, but cooked food can also be served to an idol. In addition, reindeer skulls and antlers are left in the place (Chomič 1977).</div>

<div class="tooltip-content-ethnographica">Ru <i>bolvan</i> ʻidol’ was widely used in the North to denote the different kinds of images of deities among the northern indigenous peoples. TN <i>сядэй</i> and <i>хэхэ</i> would correspond to ‘bolvan’. Of these, <i>сядэй</i> refers explicitly to the images, whereas <i>хэхэ</i> is a more general category referring to objects and phenomena related to the other world. <i>Хэхэ</i> is also used to denote family-related idols. Generally, the images of deities can be made of wood or stone. They can be remarkable stones in the middle of the tundra or bigger man-made anthropomorphic carvings. These are usually offered to when they are met in the tundra. Additionally, there are smaller images that are carried along either in TN <i>хэхэʹ хан</i> or inside clothes and left in sacred places.

<div class="tooltip-content-ethnographica">According to the travelogue, Castrén noted the narrative down from a female TN <i>тадебя</i> he met while travelling by boat from Kolva to the east in 1843. He also related the narrative in his letter to Collan (Castrén 2019: 513–515), and it ended up in his published travelogue, too (1852: 243, 270–274). The tale is of interest for Castrén because of its mythic nature and because it relates to the living environment of the Nenets and its history. Lehtisalo noted down a similar narrative in Mezenʹ and in the lower Obʹ area (Lehtisalo 1924: 78, 139).</div>

Urier, a famous <i>Tadibé</i>.
<p>Urier decided to go to heaven and take his two wives with him. The second wife had children, but the one he had married first was childless. Urier commanded the wives to sew new clothes for himself and themselves. No old piece, not even a ribbon previously used, would be allowed to be in the clothes.The clothes were finished and Urier got up. The reindeer were standing ready. Urier realised that he had not been obeyed and asked the wives why they had not followed his orders. The second wife replied that it hurt her to leave the children and that she therefore sewed an old ribbon into the clothes. Urier let her go down to the earth and he himself went with his first wife to heaven and drove there over the clouds, so that the rumble was heard on the earth. From there he went to heaven, and even today he appears on the Ural Mountains and it is called Urier’s slope. The Urals themselves are named after him.</p>

<div class="tooltip-content-ethnographica">National character, in relation to the philosophy of Hegel and Herder, can also be seen as a part of a wider phenomen in texts describing the ethnically or socially other in European travel writing and literature. It was part of the task of ethnography to describe the national character in the 19th century. In St. Petersburg, what were called psychic differences between nationalities by Nadeždin were emphasised. Although Castrén never visited the Russian Geographical Society, he was most probably aware of the discussions.</div>

<p>Chapter V</p>
National Character <br />The Kanin and Timan Samoyeds have a genuine gipsy character. Even the richest among them does not consider it to be below his dignity to beg and if one refuses to give what they ask for, they resort to coarse words and threats. Fraud is another of their distinctive skills. A Samoyed, who was my confidant, warned me never to pay for a ride in advance or to trust a Samoyed even a little. They often try to deceive each other through false documents. (One such document was given under my name, another in Veniamin’s.) One Samoyed wanted to give me false information. This is what the Samoyeds learned from the Russians and Syrians.</td>

<div class="tooltip-content-ethnographica">A Nenets wedding is a complex ritual that takes place in both the bride’s and the groom’s home camp. The wedding begins after the bride price and dowry are ready, when the groom comes, together with the spokesman and his family, to the tent of the bride. There, several ritual games, such as the capturing of the groom and his family by the bride’s family and the passing of a red cloth to the tent by the groom, take place. After a reindeer has been slaughtered and a meal served, the participants get ready to leave for the groom’s tent. Similarly, ritual games are played when the bride leaves, together with the dowry, to the groom’s tent: attempts are made to capture her from her sledge. Later, on the way, there might be people ritually stealing the bride. In the groom’s tent, a festive meal is also served. (See Chomič 1966: 167–171.)</div>

<div class="tooltip-content-ethnographica">The amount and quality of the bride price, TN <i>неʹ мирʹ</i>, was negotiated by the spokesman and the father of the bride. According to Chomič, the bride price typically consisted of (female) reindeer together with hides and clothes and sacred reindeer used for pulling sacred sledges. The dowry, TN <i>нгэдинзэй</i>, <i>мядинзэй</i>, paid by the family of the bride, included sledges with women’s clothes, household goods, food, and even a tent. As noted by Stammler, in the bride price the reindeer cannot be considered only through their economic value, but as “a kind of cultural property for maintaining relations within the community sphere”. The sense of reciprocity in the bride price and dowry is central for the Nenets, and these gifts can also be considered, in addition to being a price, as an exchange that builds long-term connections between families. (Chomič 1966: 165–167; Stammler 2005: 176–178)</div>

<p>Among the Samoyeds the daughters are sold, those of the rich at an unusually high price, even for 40 reindeer, as well as clothes, fox and Arctic fox skins, etc. The price is always so high that a poor Samoyed worries and troubles himself when it comes to finding a wife. A few years ago in the Bolshezemelskaja tundra, there was an old Samoyed living together with a young wife and a nephew. The family was poor, and the nephew insisted on marrying, but had no means to buy a wife. Once his uncle uttered: I will be old and in no need of a wife; take my wife and live with her as if she was your own. And that is how the nephew got out of his predicament.</p>
