Robyn Hued (Robin Hood) doesn't appear in history until the dark ages and then only in a Ballard. Whether or not he was a real person is left to conjecture. The best guess we have is that he may have been either a fictional character or a composite of a number of different people.
Robin of Locksley the earl of Huntingdon was mentioned as a candidate in the 17th century in a poem by Thomas dale the dean of York, but the authenticity of this is highly questionable. It would have been written many centuries after the life of the so called "Real" Robin Hood and was probably invented to legitimise the character.
