Followers of Sikhism, a major world religion founded in 15th-century Punjab that teaches belief in one God and equality among all people.
From Punjabi 'sikh' meaning 'disciple' or 'learner'; the religion was founded by Guru Nanak and developed through ten Gurus in the Punjab region of India.
Sikhs are visually distinctive because of their religious articles of faith—including uncut hair and turbans—but many people don't realize that Sikhism is one of the world's youngest major religions, making it only about 250 years younger than the United States.
