After seven years of collaborative research the authors present completely knew facts that place Beowulf\, not only in the physical world\, but also were his geographical home is. This book is a gamechanger in “Beowulfmania” as it transforms myth into reality\, connecting the enigmatic picture stones of Gotland together with named places and known characters from the poem. The Gotland Island is filled with old fortresses\, cairns and longhouses from the golden age of Beowulf an age that ended in 536. The story of Beowulf inspired Tolkien’s Lord of the rings and is the foundation for all modern fantasy literature. But the poem itself is not fiction\, it is a story about the people living on Gotland during the 5 th and 6 th century. The authors Hans Wanneby and Rikard Evertsson have\, after years of surveying field work and researching hundreds of papers\, pieced together the puzzle of the poem`s enigmatic content and created a clear picture\, something completely new. Now the dragon and the monster Grendel get their explanation and the physical environment around the King`s Hall at Stavgard\, in the kingdom of cairns\, is brought to life. Gotland`s picture stones connect us to Beowulf in a way that previously has never been considered. Follow their investigative work throughout the book\, Home of Beowulf\, richly illustrated with pictures. Hans Wanneby is a historian and guide at the Viking village Stavgard\, Rikard Evertsson works as a land surveyor.\n\ncfp_2026_0MwLYOIYSj\n\nMer info: https://www.nortic.se/ticket/show/343698
