you will allso find simalaritys in the life of Turin and Sigmund Fafnersbane (Vřlsung sagaen, it is practicualy a total re-writing)
I, as a finn, have to point out also the significant similarities between the life of Turin and the story of Kullervo in Kalevala. I just wondered, is it coincidence that the story of Kullervo and Sigmund Fafnersbane are so similar? Finns and (other) nordic people have been interacting for such a long time, that legends and stories are (probably) spread by word of mouth.
