909 BCE to 819 CE

The Roman Empire interacts with Jutland and the Danish isles from the first to the fifth century in many ways, ranging from commerce to a possible "client state" relationship.

This period is therefore referred to as the Roman Iron Age.

The Roman provinces, whose frontiers stop short of Denmark, nevertheless maintain trade routes and relations with Danish or proto-Danish peoples, as attested by finds of Roman coins.

The earliest known runic inscription dates back to about CE 200.
