Nop, they got wide bulbous skulls and features which are opposite of indo-europeans, nothing Iron Age nordic about large majority of them Coon didnt measure these people but many decades ago so its not an argument, there exist nordics in other parts of Europe and they dont have these piggish look, and the reason is simple: indo european race didnt evolve in scandinavia but on ukrainean and russian steppes.

you are right partially, CM are nothing but european hunter gatherers, as indo-europeans come from eastern HG and neolitic "farmers" from anatolian HG and are part of the larger homo sapiens sapiens race thats hundreds of thousands of years old, borreby is nothing but a northern adaptation of that european HG to climate which are the reason for those piggish features.

People in this forum spread pseudoscience. I rather trust Coon. Genetics show Steppe peaks in Norwegians and Swedes, also. There is also skeletal evidence that Nordic people settled largely in Sweden and Eastern Norway and it's people living there are it's descendants.
Denmark is not more Nordic than Sweden or Eastern Norway.
Eastern Norway is one of the most Nordic areas in Europe.
Yes , there is such thing as Borreby. .
There's no such thing as many of the pseudo classifications used by many members here, rather.

Iron Age people largely settled in Scandinavia. You are right they didn't evolve there.
The people are not Borrebies. They are not too large bodied or stocky to be Borrebies for example. You haven't measured their skulls but they are in no way wide enough to be a Borreby. There aren't many Borrebies in Sweden, I can tell you. It's mostly a Nordic area.
And he did measure Swedes back then, I cannot possibly see what has changed
The mean head length of Swedish recruits is 193.8 mm., and the breadth 152.3 mm., yielding a cephalic index of 77.7. The longest heads, with regional means running up to 195 mm., are found in the west, over against Norway, and the shortest in the north. The lowest cephalic index mean is 76.7, and the highest, concentrated in the north, are all below 80. The three principal breadth diameters of the face, minimum frontal, bizygomatic, and bigonial, have national means of 104.6 mm., 136.0 mm., and 103.4 mm., respectively, all of which are typically Nordic and comparable to those of the eastern valley Norwegians. Slight regional differences place the narrowest foreheads and faces in the western counties, and the broadest in the north and south. The total face height of 126.6 mm. is again a typically Nordic mean, comparable to that obtained by Bryn in his later work on the Eastern Valley people.58While the narrowest faces are found in western Sweden, as is to be expected, the longest are typical of farmers in the north, where the Corded element may be slightly more prevalent. The Swedes are typically leptorrhine,59and the commonest nasal profile form is straight. Concave noses, which reach the rather high figure of 28 per cent in the kingdom, are commonest in the north and least frequent in the south.
