But your trying to explain this in scientific material terms which defeats the whole idea of alternative knowledge to the scientific paradigm.Give me an example then, and explain why it is outside the scope of science.
Do any of these articles make the case that its use would not be possible to study scientifically? Getting inspiration and tips and tricks and generating hypothesis from the local population is all fine and dandy. I'm sure imperialistic and colonial worldviews have caused distress, pain, even outright murder historically so I'm all for giving the Sami people a place at the table when planning science experiments in Sapmi. If they present a method or a result or natural phenomenon we can study it with scientific methods and try to explain it as well as giving their description a voice.
The best way I can relate it to consciousness and phenomenal experiences like belief and material sciences. They belong in different paradigms or the lens by which someone sees fundemental reality. Whether its something transcedent or the causal closure of the phycial is all there is to understanding the world and reality.
Some theories in Quantum Consciousness posit that Mind is fundemental and actually creates the objective world we see. So obvious there are two ways to see the evidence. One measures the physical and the other the Mind or the phenomena beyond the mind.
Already we see a major difference where science could not even measure the transcedent aspect of reality. Therefore if there is a transcedent aspect then this must connect with the objective aspect fundementally. Thus being immersed in the transcedent or spirit gives a deeper knowledge behind what we see. Thus being able to manipulate or transcend the material world.
Its from this basis that I think ancient knowledge could be more advanced because its more aligned with fundemental reality. We can see how modern physics is now toying with the idea that Mind or consciousness is fundemental and could unlock the physical world.
But remember this is spectualtion and an hypothesis. I am not saying this is exactly the case. I don't know. I am just attempting to explain a possibility.
