And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

People Of The Sápmi - Northern Norway. Hard Life People.
Their faces seem exceptionally wide relative to the spacing between their eyes. I wonder if it is bone structure or subcutaneous fat. My bet would be fat.
Here in the western UP there are descendants of Finns and some Norwegians from the far north that used to be referred to as "round heads" but I haven't heard that in years. If you spend some time here you will see them around. It's structure. I sort of doubt that there was any extra fat on those people when those pictures were taken in the 1880s.---ken
