Maaselkä

Maaselkä was a Sámi community of the Kola Peninsula, known in Russian as Maselga or the Pulozero pogost. It belonged to the inland Kildin Sámi country, whose settlements lay among the lakes and tundra west of Lovozero. The name of the community survived in several languages, reflecting the different peoples and administrations that recorded it. Its lands formed part of a wider network of seasonal Sámi settlements across the peninsula.
