This rug was woven 60-70 years ago in the Karapinar district of Konya province in the Central Anatolia Region, using the cicim technique on woolen yarns. No paint was used on the floor of the rug. Black, green, brown, red and blue colors are found in the embroidery woven with Cicim technique. It is completely colored with root dyes. Symbols such as star, hands on hip, triangle, burdock, monster feet, ram's horn are found in this rug. The meanings of these symbols can be summarized in 3 main subjects; to ensure continuity thanks to the fertility of the woman, to increase fertility thanks to the abundance of the harvest, to protect from the evil eye, diseases and natural disasters.
