We have no accurate knowledge of whether he was an actual person or just a construct to give a name to a popular version of the songs sung by hundreds of bards who went around the towns and cities of Greece providing entertainment in the pre-TV and movies days three thousand years ago.

If he actually existed he was one of those professional troubadours making a living. And the version of the old tales of heroes which they peddled was the most popular and was written down in an era when cursive writing was just invented.
