The origin of the turban mIst be
sookcd for not, as commonly believed
among Aioslams, bat as sign of a,i
thority and honor dating back to the
earliest periods of Jewish history. The
term I5cd in the Hebrew Bible for
putting on the bonnet of the high
priest Is from Il root meaning ito bind
round" The words inter, hood, dia-
dem, as used in the Old Testament, are
only variations of the word turban.
Jerome tells us that the turbnn has n
place in the most ancient records of
history. The variations as adopted by
Mohammedans are many. Their own
authorities hint at thousand methods
Of arranging the turban, which shows
not only the tribe and religious dis
tinction, but even the personal pecul-
iarities of the wearer.
An old legend traces the turban to
an act of desperate courage recorded u
the ancient Levant1nes. A brave band
of warriors are said to have wrapped
their winding sheets round their heads
MS they devoted themselves to certain
death to save their comrades on the
battlefield.
