Yes he did but he really wasn't that good. Nobody ever really thought he was a hero. To everyone else he was just a normal arch-man. He really was but he was just to proud and confident of himself. When Robin really was alive he would just tell all the kids he was a hero. The children actually believed his stories and so they passed the old tale on. Well that brings us right to now.

The sources of the Robin Hood legend are ballads dating before 1450. Presumably they are based on oral narratives which circulated earlier. Such narratives and ballads could not have existed unless people thought Robin Hood was a hero. In one of the ballads a King Edward comes to Yorkshire and makes Robin one of his yeomen. The only King Edward who was in Yorkshire before 1450 was Edward II. One of the men in Edward II's service was named Robyn Hod. I think Robyn Hod and Robin Hood are the same and therefore Robin Hood really existed. In my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles I blend the stories of the two men, Robin and Robyn, into a coherent biography of a Robin Hood who I believe really existed.
