Nils RagvaldssonNils Ragvaldsson (latin Nicolaus Ragvaldi) was born in the beginning of the 1380's and died 1448. He was Archbishop of Uppsala, Sweden, 1438-1448. In 1434 he held a speech in Basel, Switzerland where he urged that the Swedish monarch, Eric of Pomerania, was a successor to the Goths kings, more than 800 years earlier. This idea was later taken up by Johannes Magnus when he wrote his History of the Nordic People a century later. References
