The hill peoples the Song call Yao live on burnt hill fields in the Nanling where Guangdong, Guangxi and Hunan meet (the Hunan side is scj's) and in the Dayao mountains of central Guangxi; we have drawn them on their later known homelands, which is an assumption for 1200.
The Yao of Jinghu are to rise in 1208 and be put down (Wikipedia, "Timeline of Yunnan-Guizhou"; see the likely course); no rising is dated for the winter of 1199-1200.
