The Sheriff of Nottingham is an example of a typical archetype as he possesses all the qualities of a villain.
EXPLANATION:
A typical archetype is a character that has traits that specifically define a type of character. These traits are recurrent in all stories and easily identify the character.
The sheriff of Nottingham is a typical negative character. He is cruel, corrupt, arrogant and a tyrant. His looks and nature all mark him as the typical villain. Thus in Robin Hood he serves the foil for the good and generous Robin Hood. Robin Hood is a typical archetype for a hero and his opposite is the Sheriff.
