More About Beowulf

  Last time i wrote about Beowulf I forgot one important fact. You see, Tolkien used the Roherim as kind of old english wariors like vikings with horses? Well they origanly spoke gothic I believe and I think I now know why. On the Tolkien Professor podcasts witch I have avidly relistened to I have discovered that Tolkien thought that the people of the middle ages who wrought Beowulf actually screwed up when they wrote that the wariors of Beowulf came from "Geetland" and that they actually ment the Goths. The Roherim are like the anglos  sacksin people so it can be asumed that this must have had an impact
