Probably the Mycenaean Greeks. Elites of the Greek society would often be buried with Amber. The Greeks considered Amber to be a sign of wealth due to the unique color. Studies have shown that this amber can be traced back to the Baltic Sea. Even early Scandinavian art from the Bronze and Iron Ages show boats that could point to the Mediterranean.
