Robin Hood was supposadly based on Robert Fitzdog, Earl of Huntington and Lord of Locksley who was a good archer and lived in the forests giving to the poor

In my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles I base Robin Hood on a real Robyn Hod who lived in the 14th century. My reasoning is that in one of the earliest ballads King Edward -- almost surely Edward II -- makes Robin Hood his yeoman. Edward II had a valet and porter named Robyn Hod, and I assume that Robin Hood and Robyn Hod are the same person.

Robin Hood is legend and folklore. Thus, accuracy may just depend on who is articulating the information, and nothing will be based on absolute fact. The best book on the possible actuality of Robin Hood is J.C.Holt's Robin Hood. My novel The Robin Hood Chronicles gets most of its information from Holt's book, though I am more positive in my identification than he is.
