Delve into the history of Chinese Turban Rebellions, spanning the Yellow Turban Rebellion 2,000 years ago, the White Lotus uprising during the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, and the Taiping Rebellion in the mid-19th century. Alongside the history of these rebellions, we also explore the role that the coloured turban played in creating group unity, and in underpinning the ideology and legitimacy of these various rebel movements.
