As Europeans embarked on their colonial ventures in the Americas, they also forged new frontiers closer to their homelands. In Norway's far northern territory of Finnmark, settlers from the south moved into the ancestral home of the Indigenous Sámi people, and by the end of the seventeenth century, nearly five percent of the population had been tried for witchcraft. This episode tells the story of Norway’s Vardø witch trials and their legacy.  Researched, written, and produced by Corinne Wieben with original music by <a href='https://www.purple-planet.com/'>Purple Planet</a>.    <a href='https://enchantedpodcast.net/episodes/507#sources'>Episode sources</a>  <a rel="payment" href="https://www.patreon.com/enchantedpodcast">Support the Show.</a><a href='https://www.enchantedpodcast.net/'>EnchantedPodcast.net</a> <a href='https://www.facebook.com/enchantedpodcast'>Facebook/enchantedpodcast</a> <a href='https://www.instagram.com/enchantedpodcast/'>Instagram/enchantedpodcast</a> <a href='https://www.tumblr.com/enchantedpodcast'>Tumblr/enchantedpodcast</a>
