Knut Stjerna

 * ... that Knut Stjerna (pictured) used archaeology to analyse the Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf? Source: Stjerna 1912, p. xviii: "Stjerna has collected all the material bearing on the poem of Beowulf which archæological research has yielded in the three Scandinavian countries up to the present time."

 * Symbol question.svg Article is new enough and long enough. AGFing on a number of sources owing to language barriers, others seem to fit. No indication of copyvio that I can see. Some wording issues ("In 1912 were translated into English by John Richard Clark Hall"?), I've rectified that. Hook seems reasonably sourced, may be a bit bland. Good QPQ, didn't find any copyvio or plagiarism. eta: Where is the last lead sentence sourced to? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:15, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
