Abstract
The article is devoted to the linguistic analysis of Finnish hydronyms. The origin of the names of large and significant rivers in the region is considered. The systematization of hydronyms, which received a name in the Baltic language environment, has been carried out. River names have an etymology akin to concepts such as river, channel, stream, current. The proposed article makes it possible to clarify the archaeological and historical aspects of the life of ancient people in the region. The revealed patterns in the etymology of hydronyms correlate with the data of anthropology and genetics. The language of ancient pre-Finnish tribes that existed on the territory of Finland belonged to the Baltic language group.
