	Yellow Turban Rebellion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Yellow Turban Rebellion, sometimes also translated as the Yellow Scarves Rebellion, (Traditional Chinese: 黃巾之亂, Simplified Chinese: 黄巾之乱; pinyin: Huáng Jīn Zhī Luàn) was a 184 AD peasant rebellion against Emperor Lingdi of the Han Dynasty of China.
		A major cause of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was an agrarian crisis, in which famine forced many farmers and former military settlers in the north to seek employment in the south, where large landowners took advantage of the labor surplus and amassed large fortunes.
		The Yellow Turban Rebellion was led by Zhang Jiao (who is referred to as Zhang Jue in the Moss Roberts' English translation of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms) and his two younger brothers Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, who were born in the Ju Lu district of the Ye Prefecture.

	Zhang Jiao - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zhang Jiao or Zhang Jue (140-188) (Simplified Chinese: 张角; Traditional Chinese: 張角; Pinyin: Zhāng Jiǎo or Zhāng Jué) was the leader of the Yellow Turbans during the period of the late Eastern Han Dynasty in China.
		The Yellow Turbans claimed to be Taoists, and rebelled against the Han because of the high taxes placed against them.
		The Yellow Turbans, however, were still a strong threat until the death of Zhang Jiao, when, due to a lack of a good leader, it imploded on itself.

	The Yellow Turban Rebellion
		With the Yellow Turban Rebellion, one man, Zhang Jue, stirred the pot of discontent and added a dash of magic seasoned with a logical argument that the Han Dynasty had lost the Mandate of Heaven.
		His message spread through China's countryside and hundreds of thousands of believers donned yellow turbans as a symbol of the soil from which they drew their living and to mark themselves as Zhang Jue's followers.
		The Imperial army, meanwhile, faced the pitifully unprepared Yellow Turbans and completely decimated the rebels, who so believed in the protection of their gods and the righteousness of their cause that many did not even carry weapons.

		On every side people bound their heads with yellow scarves and joined the army of the rebel Zhang Jue, so that soon his strength was nearly half a million strong, and the official troops melted away at a whisper of his coming.
		The passage should be "...On every side people bound their HEADS with yellow TURBANS." Maybe thats where the whole scarves/turbans debate began.
		I think members of the yellow turban rebellion wore any articles of yellow clothing since yellow was a very rarely worn color in ancient china.
