# Hans Jonatan

> Hans Jonatan was an escaped slave, soldier, farmer and trader. His father may have been a white Dane; his mother was a black slave. Following his participation in the Battle of Copenhagen, after which he was initially given his freedom, he became the subject of a test case in Danish law on slavery. Fleeing to Iceland, he became the first known person of African descent to settle in the country. Later, he became the subject of a DNA study.

*One of the first people of colour in Iceland*
