Migration Period

Further information: Migration period and Early history of Pomerania

The pattern of settlement in Pomerania started to change in the 3rd century. The prospering material cultures of the Roman Iron Age decayed. Only in some areas a continuity of these cultures is observed until the 5th and 6th centuries.

These changes are associated with the migration period, when Germanic tribes migrated towards the Roman Empire.
