Sameby

A Sami community (sameby) is an economic and administrative association with the right to carry out reindeer herding in a certain area, not a village in the ordinary sense. The Sami community organises the reindeer herding and distributes the work among its members. It is therefore a form of cooperation around reindeer herding, not a geographical place where people live.
