History and Origins of the Swedes and Sweden |
 | | For example, who were the Svear and Daner people who lived in the Baltic region (Denmark and southern Sweden) in the BC era? |
 | | The Gothic historian Jordanes (or Jordanis), who was a notary of Gothic kings, told in about 551 AD that the Daner were from the same stock as the Svear, both taller and fairer than any other peoples of the North. |
 | | The Vanir were later called Danir (or Daner), and eventually Danes. |
