Gene fornby

Gene Fornby is a reconstructed Iron Age settlement just outside of Örnsköldsvik, in Västernorrland County, Sweden. The earliest traces of human activity found in the area date back to the Nordic Bronze Age, but the settlement itself dated back to the Roman Iron Age, from around the years 400-600 AD. The settlement was located just by the waterline of that time, but due to the post-glacial rebound in the area, the waterline is now about 500 meters away from the settlement.
