So today for history I read a paper about whether or not Robin Hood was a real character in history or if he is a fictional character created for stories.
I think that Robin Hood himself is less likely a real person than, the stories are real and are all given the same character to create the legacy of Robin Hood. Perhaps Robin Hood was a real person and maybe he just didn't do all of the stories that we know today. In the original book of Robin Hood stories, there is now mention of either Frier Tuck or Maid Marion. Also the setting and times differ from the original stories to the stories we now know. Either way I'm not particularly sure it matters, we all love a good Robin Hood story, and finding out that he wasn't real wouldn't take away from the story at all.
