We don't know a great deal about Wat Tyler for sure. Dates for his birth vary. He lived in Kent, though we don't know exactly where, he may have been a former soldier who worked as a tiler. He was elected leader of the Peasants' Revolt, a popular uprising which protested about the poll tax to King Richard II. Tyler met Richard on June 15th, 1381, an altercation broke out and Tyler was killed, ending the rebellion.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wat_Tyler
