Beowulf was a legendary Geatish hero, later written about in a poem of the same name.

Legacy[edit | edit source]

By the mid 9th century, the legend of Beowulf was widespread, even known by English monks. When Brissy the Elder wrote the Rigsogur he believed it would elevate Rig Reidarasson to the likes of Beowulf or Ragnar Lothbrok within the Anglo-Saxon cultural consciousness.[1]
