"Robin Hood" is an ancient figure from English folklore, originally a wood-spirit or Green Man. A beetle escaping from a burning log in the hearth is called "Robin Hood's horse;" and taking a roundabout route to a near destination is called " going around Robin Hood's barn." The character in the Adventures, with his band of Merrie Men and his romance with Maid Marion, is entirely fictional.
