Sutton Hoo

Thanks for that, how very interesting that is about the maternal grandparents. Has anyone mentioned this (in respect of Raedwald) in print; or can you supply a reference directly to this custom? I agree it is worth mentioning. Actually Newton's theory is several theories: he's interested in the fact that Wealhtheow may have been from Britain, and I think his best line of argument is the suggested identity of Hrothmund of the East Anglian dynastic tally and Hrothmund the son of Hrothgar. Sam is a Wuffing addict! A single sentence could express your point effectively, provided it has a reference: otherwise it will 'float' and look like a theory.

Sigurd

You're right, Arminius isn't a german or teutonic name. It's in fact a latin name that derives from the word armenium a vivid blue, ultramarine pigment made from a stone from Armenia, due to the piercing blue eyes of Sigurd, a feature which many among the Germanic peoples have to this day. I think it's important to mention that in the article. But to this date, I haven't find the way to incorporate this information to the article. Being the one who had an objection about my first attempt, have you a suggestion on how to formulate it in the article? Your help will be appreciated. If you have some, leave your suggestions on my talk page please. FenrisUlven 15:00, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sigurd Arminius

I understand your point of view, and I have a great respect for your detail to the ethics. I just want to ask you if it's possible to include a paragraph that suppose or theorize a little bit more deeper than just puuting a link to the Arminius article at the bottom of the Sigurd article? There is surely a way we can expose it without the state of indeniable fact. The people who use wikipedia.eng must know about that. Thank you for your attention. For my part, I'm searching for reliable sources... FenrisUlven 18:20, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

When you edit

Hi Berig. Thanks for your contributions to various articles.

When you make contributions to articles dealing with the history of Sweden, could you please reference them (inline references as best)? This would be most helpful for us non-historians, for example when dealing with people advocating alternative historical theories. It is especially valuable concerning topics that are so full of misconceptions as the early Swedish history.

If you find any edits controversial, feel free to add this kind of tag: {{fact}}, as that will help me and others identify the spots where you need to go to the library to check out facts. Best,--Berig 15:56, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
