Best Answer

Storytelling dates back thousands of years in history before man could write, print, or read. The story of Robin Hood began in the 1200's as a oral poem and through the centuries characters have been added to form the story we know. In the middle ages there were people known as bards who went from place to place telling stories. Many of the early stories, of man were creation stories of how something or the world was created. Each civilization has had these stories dating back thousands of years.
