We propose a new mechanism for topological superconductivity based on an antiferromagnetically ordered chain of magnetic atoms on the surface of a conventional superconductor. In a weak Zeeman field, a supercurrent in the substrate generates a staggered spin current, which converts the preexisting topologically unprotected Shiba states into Majorana fermions (MFs). The two experimental knobs can be finely tuned providing a platform with enhanced functionality for applications. Remarkably, the electronic spin polarization of the arising edge MF wavefunctions depends solely on the parity of the number of magnetic moments, which can serve as a distinctive signature of the MFs. We introduce the basic concepts within a minimal model and make contact with experiments by a microscopic analysis based on the Shiba states.
