(Haupt)förderer Explanation: I wonder if it could be referring to the patrons, ie. the people who paid for its construction? |

Bauherr Explanation: Vielleicht so...? Mir ist der Zusammenhang nicht ganz klar, ist Danevirke das gleiche wie Danewerk oder ist es ein Personenname? Ich nehme an, dass es bei den leading promoters nicht um die Architekten der Anlage geht, sondern um die, die den Bau veranlasst haben. Den Begriff Erbauer fände ich da nicht ganz eindeutig. |
