Tästä aiheesta taisi olla jo Ruotsin tv:n itämerensuomalaisista kertovassa jutussakin, ks. http://muinainensuomi.foorumi.eu/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2347, mutta tässä on tutkimusartikkeli.
T. Douglas Price, Caroline Arcini, Ingrid Gustin, Leena Drenzel, Sven Kalmring, Isotopes and human burials at Viking Age Birka and the Mälaren region, east central Sweden, Journal of Anthropological Archaeology 49 (2018) 19–38, https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article%20/pii/S0278416517301010 :
"Several studies have also documented that pottery made according to a Finnish tradition (Baltic Finnish Pottery) was produced in Birka and other places in the Mälaren region. It seems likely that people familiar with the production of this ceramic material had moved to the Mälaren region (Gustin, 2017). Thus, one aspect of our study was to examine this possible connection to Western Finland. There were two other markers of possible Finnish connections. Permian strike-a-lights may have come from further east, but they appear to have passed through Finland before being exported to Sweden. Pegged penannular brooches (“penannular brooches with faceted and pegged knobs on the terminals”, Fig. 8) are a distinctive dress ornament known to have been produced and worn in Western Finland, also recorded in the Mälaren region (Gustin, 2015, 2016, 2017; Roslund, 2017)."
"Most of the graves in the larger Mälaren region from this period are cremations and such burials provided five of the six samples with artifacts connected to Western Finland. There was one inhumation grave in the sample. At Birka, on the other hand, the four burials with Finnish artifacts (644:II, 834, 954 and 1053) were in chamber graves."
