The site would not be complete without the inclusion of King
Johns legionary enemy, Robin Hood
You might be in for a surprise. The legend of Robin Hood has changed
a lot over the years. "Classic" characters such as Maid Marian,
Friar Tuck and Alan a Dale were all later additions to the greenwood
folklore. So was the steal from the rich and give to the poor motif.
The Robin Hood of the early ballads is very different from the
Robin Hoods of Errol Flynn and Kevin Costner.
However, this site follows the "tale" and lets you decide which
is fact and which is fictional.
