Robin Hood is perhaps the most beloved outlaw as well as one of those unsolved mysteries of folk lore. Was Robin Hood a real person. Robin Hood legends began as early as the 1300's in ballads, one specifically was about King Edward meeting an outlaw and employing him. However, one problem is the name Robin and Hood both of which were extremely common names in that age. Other historical references are found and quite a few but are they about the Robin Hood. We may not ever know if there was a man robbing the rich and giving to the poor but whether real or legend he has left his mark.
