A groundbreaking study led by the University of Turku has uncovered compelling genetic evidence of medieval migration from Sweden to southwestern Finland and the region of Häme between the 11th and 13th centuries.
By analyzing ancient DNA from human remains unearthed at archaeological sites in these areas, researchers identified distinct genetic markers linking Finns during the Late Iron Age and Middle Ages to populations across the Baltic Sea, particularly in present-day Sweden. The findings suggest that demographic shifts were not solely driven by local evolution but also by significant movement of people during this transformative period in Nordic history.
