Wikipedia description:
Heinz Ritter-Schaumburg (born 3 June 1902 in Greifswald as Heinrich Adolf Ritter; died 22 June 1994 in Schaumburg) was a German scholar and writer, who developed a hypothesis about the origin of the legends about Dietrich von Bern and the Nibelungs. He postulated that Dietrich von Bern was a historic king ruling in Bonn in Germany, who was later confused with Theodoric the Great. Similarly he proposed that the legendary Etzel (also Atilla, Atli or Atala) was a historic king residing in Soest, who was later confused with Attila the Hun. His hypothesis was either ignored or rejected by most scholars in the field, but gained a relatively large amount of attention in public since 1975.
