Several scholars have in the past hypothesized a northward movement by Hunnic contingents which ultimately reached Scandinavia on the basis of archaeological and philological evidence, an event which should be detectable in both ancient and modern DNA if true. In the book, The Huns and their allies in Scandinavia, the author Karl O. Högström utilizes an interdisciplinary approach centered around genomics to trace a westward migration by the Huns from Inner Asia via southeastern Europe to Scandinavia. The significance and implications of this become clear when looking at the philological evidence which suggests that the Huns had a formative and lasting impact on the development of the peoples, cultures and beliefs in Scandinavia during the Late Iron Age.
