🇫🇮Linguists have been studying Indo-European loanwords in Finnish since the late 1800s, and the Finnic languages (Estonian and Finnish) have always been important to Germanic linguists because they contain early archaic loanwords from the Proto-Germanic stage. It has been known by archaeologists that Proto-Germanics lived near Finnic speakers, and the PG loanwords in Finnic are usually considered to be a result of these interactions.
Itkonen (1983) discovered around 450 early Germanic loanwords in Finnic, although not all of them were necessarily deemed to stem from the Proto-Germanic stage. Kallio (2012) estimates the amount to be around 500. Cronhamn (2018) found a whopping 118 Proto-Germanic loanwords in the modern Finnish language. 🇫🇮

🇫🇮Some of the more well known Proto-Germanic loanwords in Finnic includes:
Kuningas = king. From Proto-Germanic *kuningaz. Ironically, Germanic languages have not preserved this archaic word, and instead use words that developed from it. Kóngurinn in Icelandic, konge in Norwegian, konung or kung in Swedish, konge in Danish, könig in German, just to name a few.
Ruhtinas = prince, sovereign prince. From Proto-Germanic *druhtinaz.
Keihäs = spear. From Proto-Germanic *gaizaz.
Kunnia = honor. From Proto-Germanic *kunją.
Murha = murder. From Proto-Germanic *murþaz.
Haukka = hawk. From Proto-Germanic *habukaz.
Kana = chicken. From Proto-Germanic *hanô. 🇫🇮

@illyrianometer
In Greek mythology, the Hyperboreans (Ancient Greek: ὑπερβόρε(ι)οι, romanized: hyperbóre(i)oi, pronounced [hyperbóre(ː)oi̯]; Latin: Hyperborei) were a mythical people who lived in the far northern part of the known world.[1][2][3][4] Their name appears to derive from the Greek ὑπέρ Βορέᾱ, "beyond Boreas" (the God of the north wind) or "beyond Boreas". Some scholars prefer a derivation from ὑπερφέρω (hyperpherō, "to carry over")

SPANISH MISSION OF AJACAN. Virginia’s First European Colony 1570
In 1570, a group of Spanish Jesuit missionaries established a mission in eastern Virginia, 36 years before the English founded the first permanent English colony at Jamestown. They called it The St. Mary’s Mission. The Native Americans called it Ajacan. In February 1571, the entire Spanish mission was massacred by the Native Americans, except for one young boy called Alonso de Olmos who lived to tell the story. The following year, a Spanish party from Florida went to the area and rescued Alonso.
