Our carpets and kilims may be considered as important documents of culture like the other documents of our history because they reflect the features of the social lives, economic structure and
aesthetic norms of the period in which they were woven. These carpets have a distinct place in terms of culture, which constitute a cultural heritage belonging to us. The traditional Turkish hand
made carpets, with their weaving style and technique, meanings and symbols, dyes and colors, have the properties which can transfer the technical, economic and aesthetic values of the period in
which they were woven. Life styles of Turkish tribes and clans, who had the chance to live in a great geography from the steppes of Central Asia to Anatolia, were reflected in the ground clothes
they weaved, and such style of expression conveyed the past to day with the pleasant nuances among the tribes, motifs and colors.
