The yellow badge was first introduced by a caliph in Baghdad in the ninth century, and spread to o the West in medieval times. Even in public baths, nonMuslims wore medallions suspended from cords around their necks so no one would mistake them for Muslims. Belts, headgear, shoes, armbands and/or cloth patches were also used. Under Muslim Shi'a rules, they were not even allowed to use the same baths [6] And finally in 1005 the Jews of Egypt were ordered to wear bells on their garments so you could hear them coming.
