Where this word comes from

vierto (“turning over burning material in slash-and-burn cultivation”) + -la. The surname developed via farm names. The place in Vantaa was named after a farm (name adopted in 1911), in turn probably after the Viertola farm found in the novel Seven Brothers by Aleksis Kivi (the name Viertola is a rather common farm name in Finland).
