Antique Turkish Rugs

I love Turkish Rugs and have studied them for years. Here is a chance to look at some of my favorite rugs and carpets.
Western Rug scholars constantly try to push the idea that weaving started in the Mediterranean area and spread out from there. Unfortunately the Historical and Archeological evidence points to weaving going back over 8,000 years in the Altaic Mountains of Siberia. So while weaving started thousands of miles from Turkey it stayted exactly in the time and place that the Turkish people originated.

    I love Turkish rugs, I bought one a few years ago while visiting Istanbul, it's very nice and not too many people have authentic turkish rugs. BTW, a few images on your lens appear to be missing/broken.
